Message from the Worshipful Master:

Greetings Brethren,

       The more I’m around, the more amazed how fast time is flying. It’s Christmas time already. I hope that everyone had a nice Thanksgiving and is looking forward to the Christmas holiday. I can’t help but think that we need to pay attention for the reason we have this holiday. Especially as Masons we brothers should be mindful as Christmas means peace on Earth and Goodwill toward men; the major tenets of the fraternity. It has been my pleasure and honor in Victory Lodge to experience how Masons practice these ideals. What I mean to say that at Victory Lodge we don’t simply call each other brother, we actually mean it.

My brothers and friends make the Christmas new again as when I was a child. I look forward every year to the holiday festivities plan for our Lodge. The Christmas Party this year is scheduled for the 10th of Dec. at 7:00 pm. We are asking of a covered dish or desert. The Menu is planned as followed: Ham, Smith’s world famous red roasted potatoes and green bean casserole. Santa of course will be at the party again. Anyone who wants Santa to deliver anything, please try to be as early as possible so Santa can get organized.

This month’s movie night is again cancelled because we want (I feel) to be home with our families this month. I intend to have the 1st movie night in January.

I would be remiss in not mentioning the ladies of Victory Lodge. These wonderful women are the ones who allow us to do all that we do throughout the Masonic year. Thank you ever so much ladies. We appreciate all of your support.

Again let me be the first to wish all the best this Christmas. May God Bless us all.

Fraternally yours,

Patrick J. Smith
Worshipful Master

Greetings Brethren,

Brethren I appreciate the quick response that you have sent with your dues payments for this year.  Worshipful Brother Wright has been a great help as he steps down from begin Secretary.

Fraternally,

Did You Know?

 

If you attend three meetings this year and pay $25 at each meeting, you will have paid for next years dues.  This is a new program at Victory Lodge.  Come out, meet our core of officers, find out about upcoming events, and get your dues paid early.  This saves you time and money in the long run.
