Masonic History
Dear Nobles,
I recently attended a Blue Lodge meeting where the Grand Master, Most Worshipful Brother Ted Collins, presented several 25 year pins and 50 year aprons. Everyone appeared to have an enjoyable evening and the Grand Masters made an excellent talk about the Masonic bodies and the benefits of membership. Some of the award recipients made comments that they had not attended Masonic functions as they should. It started me thinking about my participation during my 30 years as a Mason.
The following is a list as best that I can remember of my involvement. It surprised me when I looked at it. You may be surprised at your own, why not make a list of your own support?
