Message From The D.D.G.M. - 30 Jan 2021

Brethren - Hoping all is well with you and your families at this time. The pandemic were facing shows no signs of let up and a lot of areas in Ontario seem to be worse than others but fortunately we’ve managed to stay safe within the comforts of our homes. The district manages to continue business of the lodges via zoom and has been very successful so far. We’ve had comments from the Grand Master as to the success in Brant District and this was well received by the members of our district. As we continue to hold these district meetings we must also continue to share with others the knowledge that we possess as well distinctive Masons.

As I spoke with our lodges at Official Visits participation and involvement is a key element of success. I’m asking that we take this into consideration for your respective lodge. We’ve changed the meetings so all brethren from around the district can attend the meetings of there choice as visiting is also a key factor to masonry. We’ve also added speakers to attend and present education to make the meetings more interesting to the members. Younger members of the district need to hear and see so-called “veterans” to continue the spark in the craft. Even though the meetings don’t reveal any work or ritual it’s nice to see familiar faces that we’ve seen before pre-pandemic at meetings.

If you have any technical issues or suggestions that may be helpful to the district, please inform me or the Master of your lodge so we can possibly get more input that will allow even more attendance to the meetings. This is all we have for now so let’s do the best with what we have. Hoping to see you at a meeting soon.

Fraternally
