Over <\/span>the past year and more especially these past few months I\u2019ve <\/span>spent my time planning, studying ritual, having meaningful conversations with many members and preparing for my presumptive year as your Worshipful Master. I have had time to reflect on my oaths & obligations & how being a member of Harmony has enriched my life. <\/span>I am excited for the work of Harmony to begin. Together we\u2019ll create <\/span>an enlightening experience for candidates and our members, through our ritual and continued fellowship.<\/span><\/p>\n This year promises to be an exciting one with <\/span>our Officer\u2019s commitment to elevate Harmony\u2019s <\/span>ritual and events that drive more participation and promoting Harmony Lodge within our community. If <\/span>there is one thing I\u2019ve learned through Masonry, it\u2019s that I can\u2019t do any <\/span>of this without the support of my Officers & you Brethren.<\/span><\/p>\n With Most Worshipful Grand Master Kenneth Poyton in the Grand East, it goes without saying that our Officers have committed to perform our ritual in a manner that will give our Brothers an exciting and meaningful experience. This is also a great opportunity for members from our sidelines to participate. Take a part in the second <\/span>section of our Master Mason degree! Be a part of a Brother\u2019s biggest <\/span>moment, by joining our cast!<\/span><\/p>\n Harmony Lodge will also have opportunities for our Brothers to promote our fraternity in our community. Participation in charity <\/span>events are excellent opportunities to promote Harmony\u2019s fellowship <\/span>while also helping our local charities. Inclusion of Rainbow – Woodridge Assembly & DeMolay – Fidelity Chapter will be a nice way to bring our Masonic families together while serving our community.<\/span><\/p>\n Our members are important to help drive the future direction & success of Harmony. Through your participation & your contributions Harmony will grow in its bonds of Brotherhood and be strengthened from each of our personal efforts.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n As I have the gift of gab…and don\u2019t want to upset James our Treasurer at the cost of adding <\/span>additional pages to our Trestleboard due to my View From the West contribution, I leave you with this: I am humbled to have the honor and excited for this busy and what will be a <\/span>rewarding year ahead and I hope that you\u2019re equally excited! I look forward to the prospect of <\/span>serving you as the Master of Harmony Lodge, and I am anxious for all of us to get started on our new year.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Love & Respect,<\/span><\/p>\n Patrick M.
