Trestleboard March 2024 – 100th Birthday

Chartered January 17th, 1924 A.D., 5924 A.L.

Greetings from the East,

Brethren,

Welcome to Eola Lodge No. 207 F.&A.M. I am honored to have served for the year 2023, and to now be elected and installed as Worshipful Master for the year 2024. We are focused on community outreach, charity, and leaving the world in a better condition than that which we found it. First, praises be to God for allowing us to meet as a family. To the Brothers, I thank you for your continued leadership in our respective communities and look forward to the work that we have yet to accomplish. To our families, without whose support we would not have the wherewithal to do the work, thank you. To those who are not a part of the fraternity, (yet), we are here for you and want to know how you would like us to make the world a better place.

Please pay close attention to the Introduction to Freemasonry. It will give you a glimpse into the work that we do and the goals that we set out to accomplish. If you are a Brother of this Fraternity, it will remind you of our mission. We are here to improve the world and ourselves in Masonry. Always remember how we meet, act, and part.

With Brotherly Love and Affection,

W:.M:. Andy A. Jules  2023 & 2024

“Not everyone can become a Master Mason because Freemasonry is an organization with higher standards and requirements that not everyone wants to live by.
Not everyone can be an airplane pilot, and not everyone can be a doctor either. The standards and requirements for becoming a Freemason are considerably more common than those other two examples, yet they are standards and requirements that not everyone will want to or be able to meet.

We are all glad to know that airplane pilots and doctors have high standards and requirements. In much the same way we are glad to know that all of our fellow Masons hold themselves to the higher standards and requirements that we do ourselves. Freemasons are glad that they are part of a fraternity that they can be proud of and would recommend to anyone that has the desire to live by its system of higher morals and virtues.

Freemasonry is a good thing for everyone but not everyone is a good thing for Freemasonry.” – William Sheperds-Stone

Greetings from the South,

 

Dear Brethren and Honored Visitors,

It is with great pleasure and a profound sense of Masonic pride that I extend a warm and hearty greeting to each of you as we gather for the third Trestle Board of March 2024. Freemasonry, with its timeless traditions and noble principles, continues to illuminate our path and unite us in brotherhood.

For those who are new to our esteemed Craft, allow me to offer a brief introduction to Freemasonry. At its essence, Freemasonry is a fraternity founded on the principles of brotherly love, relief, and truth. Through symbolic rituals and moral teachings, we seek to inspire personal growth, foster mutual respect, and promote the welfare of humanity.

I am thrilled to announce a momentous occasion within our lodge: the raising of five new Entered Apprentices. This achievement is a testament to the dedication and teamwork of all involved in the degree work. It is a milestone worth celebrating, as these newly raised brethren embark on their Masonic journey with zeal and commitment.

As we come together in fellowship, I extend a heartfelt invitation to all brethren and visitors to join us for dinner, which will commence at 6:00 PM, every first and third Tuesday of the month. Let us break bread together and strengthen the bonds of fraternity that unite us as Freemasons.

However, I must regrettably inform you that I will be absent from our first meeting this month. My family and I will be traveling to Puerto Rico to celebrate the 80th birthday of my wife’s grandmother, a joyous occasion that we simply cannot miss. Rest assured, our lodge proceedings will be in capable hands, and I eagerly anticipate reuniting with my brethren upon my return.

In closing, I extend my deepest gratitude to each of you for your unwavering dedication to our beloved fraternity. May the light of Freemasonry continue to shine brightly in our hearts and guide us on our noble journey of self-discovery and service to others. Until we meet again, I bid you farewell and look forward to our reunion soon.

Fraternally,

Br. Junior Warden
