My Brothers,

 

I would like to thank all the Brothers of Orlando Lodge No.69 for the confidence you have bestowed upon me to represent you and our Lodge as Worshipful Master for the following year 2012. I have planned our installation of Officers for January 7, 2012 at 2pm at Orlando Lodge No.69 everyone is welcome. I look forward to serving you the Craft as well as the Lodge it's self and endeavor to continue the Lodge growth. We have many events planned in to coming weeks and months we need you my Brothers not to work but to join a team so the community projects we have scheduled will be a success. Come join us at Lodge and enjoy the fellowship. I would like to wish everyone happy , and a great New Year!

Congratulations to all of the newly elected and appointed officers. Let us continue the tradition that has made Orlando Lodge 69 THE Lodge to join in the 17th District.

From the Scribe

My Brothers,

 

We are on the cusp of a new year, and I congratulate those that have been elected and appointed for the coming year. My thanks to the Craft for allowing me to stand for another year, I never have been perfect, and make no claims about so being, but I will always give you my best. I do believe that this will be an interesting year, and it is my hope that we can continue to expand our member base. It has always been my goal to once again bring Orlando 69 back to the numbers they had thirty years ago, and I do believe that it is possible. We do need improvements to the building, however it is quite possible that a small change can make a big difference, and small changes do not necessarily cost that much. My congratulation to Worshipful Brother Ricks for his service to the lodge during the past year.

 

By the pen,

Bob Johnson

  • Some Biblical passages in Masonry
    masonic bible

    The history of the evolution of our Craft supports my argument that many of the Biblical passages in the ritual actually dates from the time around the Enlightenment period to suggest in a subtle way the need to intellectually break free from the stranglehold the Church has on the mind of the time, thus freeing the minds and brought about the flourishing of science and technology that we see today. A paper by W.Bro. Ronald Paul Ng, Lodge of St. George No. 1152, United Grand Lodge of England.
