Bulletin and Summon of Regular Stated Meeting March 19, 2016

Message from the East
WM Ivan Gerardo J. Banaag

Brethren:

Brethren, as originally planned, we are supposed to have our 1st Feeding Program this March for the students of our adopted school, the Doña Josefa F. Celdran Memorial School, but after our visit with the Principal, we realized that a more appropriate activity will be the giving of awards for academic excellence, thus we decided to divert the budget to purchase 24 Medals (8 Gold, 8 Silver, & 8 Bronze), the number needed for Grades 1 to 6 Honor Students.  I encourage you to be present during the Turn-Over of the said medals.  Final date will be announce soon.

Special thanks to our senior warden, Bro. Alykhan U. Ali for his time to accompany me all three times we visited our adopted school and facilitated the purchase and preparation of the medals.

Last February 20, 2016, before our stated meeting, the Brethren labored for the Raising of another new member, help me welcome again the youngest Master Mason of our lodge in the person of Bro. Lee Michael C. Caballes.  My sincerest thanks to all the members of the conferral team.

To all interested Brethren, Ancom 2016 will be on April 28 to 30, Taal Vista Hotel, Tagaytay City.  You may register online at www.ancom2016.org or for questions or inquiries, you can email contact@ancom2016.org.  Our Brother Marshal Ian Justin Sagario already reserved a place for our accommodation.

Again, Thank you & May the GAOTU bless us all!

"We dedicate this temple to God.  We raise it as a monument to Him who has given us that which will long survive what we now dedicate to Him.  For in the shadowy line between time and eternity, in the glimmer and gloom of the deepening twilight, in the shrine of a temple, we shall behold Him in the glorious dawn of immortality." - Gen. Douglas McArthur, November 19, 1938
