Masonic Brothers, Friends and Families- It is the holiday season and it is time for all of us to look back on the past year. We all have many things to be thankful for. We have had many opportunities to talk and laugh with friends and families. We can look forward to seeing family in the next few weeks. On a personal note, I am thankful to have had the past few months to be Worshipful Master of our Lodge. I was overwhelmed with the faith and trust that was given to me early this summer when our election was held. I had a difficult time staying focused on everything I had to say at installation, and I am excited, and still in awe, at every meeting to have the honor to sit in the East. It still seems like a dream. We are trying to improve our communication with our brothers. We have many Brothers who do not attend Lodge regularly. Some have moved away, some are sick and can’t make it and others simply have busy lives that keep them away. I hope that by using this web page, we can get more information out more easily. We have several events coming up in 2015. Feel free to look at the calendar to see what we have planned. It is looking to be a busy year for us all. I wish I could talk with each and every one of my Brothers and say Happy Holidays. I wish everyone a safe, happy and healthy Holiday season. Above all, I wish 2015 to be much better than 2014 has been for us all. May the Heavenly Father look down on our works here on earth and smile upon us all. May Brotherly love prevail and every moral and social virtue cement us. Tom Saccardi
