FROM THE EAST
May 5th will be our 2nd open house and I hope it will be as successful as last year's was when we reintroduced Sharon Lodge to the community, and which brought us eight new members. If you are able to assist with this year's open house, please volunteer to help with receiving and interviewing guests on that day.
The officers are working hard to advance in the chairs for next year. Recently they initiated Oleg Purpish as E.A. in the first section of the degree and did a fine job. They are continuing to successfully conduct the meetings. I believe we can expect to see Randall T. Stockett, S.W. in the East next year.
I hope to see more of our new members at future meetings so that we may get to know one another better, and together explore new directions for this old Lodge.
Sincerely and Fraternally,
Dennis Carroll Jensen WM, PGI

I, as a Freemason, believe in the Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man. I will do unto others, as I would have them do unto me. I pledge my loyalty to the government of the United States of America, a government of the people, by the people, and for the people; and will not countenance disloyalty on the part of others. Freemasonry is founded upon these principles and I will use my utmost efforts to preserve them for posterity. So mote it be.
