Message from the Worshipful Master
Brethren,
I am deeply honored and humbled to be elected Worshipful Master of Pitman Lodge. To follow
in the footsteps of so many outstanding Masters before me is both a privilege and a responsibility
I do not take lightly. Their dedication, leadership, and commitment have made Pitman Lodge a
strong, relevant, and vital part of the 21st District and the wider community we proudly serve.
I offer my sincere appreciation to our Past Masters, whose wisdom, experience, and skilled use
of our working tools have set a standard worthy of emulation. Their guidance has shaped not
only this Lodge, but also the character of the brothers who labor within it. The foundation they
have laid allows us to continue our work with confidence and purpose.
I am also grateful to the brothers who have stepped forward to advance through the officer’s line. Your willingness to serve, learn, and lead ensures the continued progress and strength of our
Lodge. Together, with unity, dedication, and a forward-leaning spirit, we will build upon our
proud traditions while preparing Pitman Lodge for a strong and meaningful future.
As we move forward, I ask for the continued support, counsel, and active participation of every
brother. By working together in harmony, strengthening our bonds of fellowship, and remaining
faithful to the principles of our Craft, we can ensure that Pitman Lodge continues to grow, thrive,
and stand as a beacon of brotherhood, service, and excellence for generations to come.
This year we will have a ‘practice session’ for ALL officers and brethren that wish to learn the
ritual. All members of the Lodge who wish to participate in the ritual, the degree work, or
committee work will be given every opportunity to do so. You need only step-up and let me
know what it is you wish to participate in.
Remember my brother; God loves you and so do I.
with your families and Church.
Attest:
Michael Paris, Secretary
