engagement. It is so rewarding to see the
difference we make to those in need in our
community, and I will never tire of
representing you at these external events
during my term of office.
If I can return to the theme of membership,
my fervent and overriding wish for our
Lodges this Masonic year, is for each to
grow and increase its numbers by just
ONE member. However, this is not as
simple as it sounds as if you lose a
member through resignation, death or
honorary membership, those losses will
also need to be accounted for with
additional members to achieve that
aspiration. At my last two official Lodge
visits to Meridian Lodge of West Kent and
New Rippon Falls Lodge, both have
undertaken double initiations, so they are
already on the way to achieving that aim.
By popular demand, we have listened to
our members and will be holding the
Provincial Grand Chapter meeting at
Oakley House this year during the
afternoon of Friday 12 July, which will be
followed by a specially selected sumptuous
dinner thereafter, and I look forward to
seeing you there. At the meeting, we plan
to make a further donation to the MCF to
mark the fabulous contribution which has
been made by our Chapters and
Companions alike.
May you all have a happy and enjoyable –
and most of all – a relaxing summer break,
and trust that we will all return to an
enriching and productive Masonic season,
where so much enjoyment awaits us.
