WB Pat D. Noel
Worshipful Master
Thank you Brethren for the successful celebration of our 40th Ruby anniversary last April 14. Though there were a few of our members who were out due to very important appointments, the affair was fun and well participated. We missed some of our past masters though, but it doesn’t mean they’re forgotten, they were just on vacation. They are just busy with other previously arranged commitments.
Thanks too, to all brethren from other lodges who took their time and joined us in our celebrations. Thanks to WB Oskie for the lechon, WB Ronald Sy for the ice cream, VW Henry Dy & Bro. Sandy Sy for the Labels, WB Abel for the additional food. To WB Victor Mariano for taking care of the affair by being our Master of Ceremony. And for the sponsors of the Gift Certificate raffled off, namely: The Homebrew CafĂ©, JY Dimsum, and Marianos Home-cooked Specialties. To VW Warly Sanguila for taking care of the rest of the program… the ceremonial toast. With special thanks to my wife, Binky, for helping in the preparation.
It seems like only yesterday that we were in Legazpi City, Albay for the recently concluded 2015 Ancom. My heartfelt appreciation to the members of Iligan Lodge No. 207 who were present – VW Angelo Rentoy, WB Ronald Sy, WB Ali Bari, WB Ferdinand Bartolome, SW Bro. Ivan Banaag and yours truly. The district was well represented and we would like to take this opportunity to extend our congratulations to VW Ian Uy, our new District Deputy Grand Master for RX-D & ARMM (Lanao), VW Kuya Jing Rahon, VW Omarbasha Lucman and VW Allan Buenaventura, our new District Grand Lecturers. The event was well attended and was managed well. The hosts were also very accommodating, the honorable Mayor VW Noel Rosal, IPDDGM was present at the airport bidding farewell to all who attended. Congratulations to the newly installed Grand Lodge Officer led by our Grand Master of Masons, MW Tomas Rentoy, RW Voltaire Gazmin, Deputy Grand Master, RW Abraham Tolentino, Senior Grand Warden and the newly elected Grand Junior Warden RW USec Romeo Momo.
May is the month of flowers. The 2nd Sunday of May is also celebrated world-wide as Mother’s Day. Let me take this chance to extend my warmest greetings of “Happy Mother’s Day” to all Mothers and would-be Mothers not just in our Lodge but in the entire Masonic sphere. Brethren, extend our heartfelt wishes of love and affection to our better half. May God continue to bless all Mothers whithersoever dispersed. Happy Mother’s Day Ateng!
And lastly, everyone is invited to our May stated meeting come May 16, 2015 @ 5:00 o’clock in the afternoon at the Ubaldo D. Laya Masonic Center. Please come in proper Masonic attire. Thank you and may the GAOTU continue to bless us all!
TOGETHER BRETHREN!
