News from last month's meeting

January 2011
Brian S. Williams, Secretary

Bro. Mark Beard returned his Master Mason examination and was greeted and congratulated for his efforts. Several new Entered Apprentices started their journey through our Lodge and are also progressing very nicely. One new Brother was our Inspection candidate in the Entered Apprentice Degree. Although a number of members from our Lodge felt it was in their best interests to suspend themselves from membership for various reasons, we have at least one Brother who had previously suspended himself from membership is now seeking restoration.

A report was given that we have been asked to again participate in the Niles Community Meals program. R.W.B. Curtis Miller has been asked to obtain further information concerning our participation. The First Christian Church in Niles has graciously granted our Lodge use of their facilities if needed.

Our Lodge Education Officer, W.B. Charles Chagnot, continues his interesting and informative talks on Freemasonry at almost every meeting.

A moment of silence was held for the passing of W.B. Andrew Kieltsch. W.B. Kieltsch will be missed by many.

We exhibited a very fine Inspection in the Entered Apprentice Degree during the month. A number of visiting Brethren were greeted from lodges throughout the 25th Masonic District. R.W.B. Scott Baker, our current District Deputy, was accompanied by R.W.B. Gary Evans, also a current District Deputy, and Worshipful Brothers William Gore and Orville West who are both District Education Officers of our District.
