Notice of Regular Communication of St. Alban's Lodge No. 6 will be held at 363 Hope Street, Bristol, RI 02809.
Wednesday, September 10th, 7:00 PM
Greetings, St. Alban’s Brothers,
Welcome back! I hope you all had a restful and relaxing summer break. I did as well, though I was very busy helping finish a family house project!
Although we were officially in recess for the summer, we still held several memorial events in July and August. We had a great member turnout for our Fourth of July celebration, hosted Washington Lodge for their Fellow Craft degree, and provided a memorial service for Brother Ron Hillegass in July. In August, we enjoyed another strong membership and family turnout at the Grand Lodge picnic.
Our September communication will be held on Wednesday, September 10th, with dinner provided by Cabral’s, followed by a Viking program presented by me.
We remain on track to complete the Grand Master’s Award, thanks to your hard work. Kudos, my brothers! I’d also like to begin rehearsals for our Master Mason degree, targeted for November. Your assistance will be both needed and greatly appreciated.
St. Alban’s #6: “We are small, but we are mighty!”
Fraternally,
R. Andrew Benn, WM
As another year passes since you were raised to the sublime degree of Master Mason. May your dedication and commitment to the craft lead you to a fulfilling and enlightened journey ahead.
