Master's Message, January 2026

Happy Holidays my Brothers,  

I hope you all dad an opportunity to spend some quality time with your family and friends during the Holiday season.  This time of year is when many people look to new beginnings.  Maybe we take a step back to access our lives and see where we want to go in the coming year.

It’s a good time to think about our Masonic journey.  Have we looked inward of ourselves?  Are we the best Mason’s we can be?  It’s a good time to reevaluate our commitment to the Craft.  I believe Masonry can be more that attending a monthly meeting and having dinner with Brothers.  Which is fine by all means. but maybe it’s time to think about how you can get more involved with your lodge and other Masonic organizations.  The Shrine is a perfect example, think of the charity work that the Shrine does for the community, or volunteering at the Robert Allen Medical Center.  For me, giving back is so rewarding; I feel good about helping others less fortunate.

I want to thank the Brothers who donated and helped deliver 11 food baskets to the needy families, including four Veteran families who are experiencing difficult times.

This month’s annual communication will end my time in the East.  I have been very honored to represent Adelphoi Lodge for the past 16 months and have been able to work with such a dedicated and determined group of officers.  Thank you all for all your hard work and commitment to this Lodge.

Please note dinner will be served prior to the meeting at 5:30 pm downstairs with lodge opening at 6:30 pm.
