Worshipful Master
Brethren, September was quite busy for all of us. It was a month-long celebration of our fiesta in honor of our patron saint, St. Michael the Archangel. Iligan indeed was blessed with the fact that the celebration went through with no mishaps or undesirable events. It was also busy for our lodge for we were able to raise Bro. Ted Bryan K. Yu to the sublime degree without any hitches. Thanks so much to the support of everyone present - to the conferral team on the 1st and 2nd section, Thank you from the bottom of my heart! Likewise, we also elected Mr. Lee Michael Caballes to receive the degrees of freemasonry in our lodge.
Come Saturday October 17, 2015, we will be raising to the sublime degree Bro. John Yasser Sanguila. My thanks in advance to those who answered my call for the composition of the conferral team. We had exerted efforts well to polish our skills. Thanks so much.
And, on the following day, October 18, it was planned that we will have a tree planting activity for the district, spearheaded by our beloved lodge Iligan 207. This is chaired by WB Ali Bari. We will be gathering at the lodge and proceed to Bayug Island to plant mangroves. WB Bari is closely coordinating with the barangay representative on this matter. A district meeting was held to discuss the activity and it was decided that a contribution of one thousand pesos (P1,000.00 will be contributed by each lodge to cover breakfast and other incidental expenses. Brethren, let us join hands for the nurturing of our mother earth. Let us join in the tree-planting activity.
And by the end of October, on the 31st to be exact, we will be initiating Mr. Lee Michael Caballes to receive the 1st degree of Masonry in our lodge. We will soon call for a meeting for the conferral team for this and will have a practice to polish our skills in the performance of the rituals and floor works of this degree. We have requested for dispensation on this matter from our DDGM, VW Ian Uy.
The support you have all extended to the lodge will soon bring good people to our ranks and will make our lodge once again busy. We still have 10 more people awaiting for their chance to be accepted. We will be doing all this again with gusto 10 more times if allowed to.
For the goodness of freemasonry in general, and for our lodge in particular, TOGETHER BRETHREN!
