The stated meetings are the 1st and 15th, we have a master mason degree on the 8th for our brotherChris Sheppard and 2 brothers from Venice 301. The 12th is our gun club lunch. We are going back to 2 BBQs for the remainder of the year still 2nd and 4th Sundays, that is the 13th and the 27th. Saturday the 19th is our spaghetti dinner and finally a harvest dinner and dance the 26th. Our meeting on the 15th is the DDGMs official visit with a special meal that night. The Grand Master has been invited and would be a great surprise for RW Dan Van Alstine for his home coming. As you can see October will be the busiest month this year. Remember we are now a city and we can do this with your help and support.

FROM THE SOUTHMy Brothers,

This year I lying by. I can’t believe it is October already! As the year comes to an end, the next few months are going to be very busy. Just in October we have a Master Mason Degree on the 8th, hopefully we will be seeing one of our EA’s giving back his proficiency, the DDGM visit on the 15th. We also have our normal spaghetti supper and now back to BBQ’s (see calendar for dates). Always something going on at the lode that is for sure. The DGM visit is sure gong to be a good one as it is his homecoming visit, we are planning a Prime Rib Dinner with all the fixings. If you plan on attending, please make sure you notify the lodge so we can make sure there will b enough for all that attend. Get involved with the lodge, come out and join in on all the fun and Brotherhood our lodge has to offer.

Be a better Mason tomorrow than you are today!

Wills and Gifts Explained

One of the most satisfying things that we can do as Masons is to leave a legacy for someone

or something we care deeply about. In order to assist in making decisions regarding planned giving, Grand Lodge has developed a

brochure entitled:“A Guide to Wills & Trusts in Florida.”Ask your Lodge Secretary for a copy

CHAPLAIN’S CORNER

The first page in my Masonic Bible states that mankind was created by one Godand that God is the author of all life. God’s existence is revealed to man throughfaith and the Holy Book of Scriptures. Freemasons have three great lights. One of

those lights is the Holy Book of Faith which is the ultimate authority of our actionsand relationships to our fellow man. Please use, read and study the book as a guide

in your daily life.W\ Harry Shaffer Jr., 33°

MASONIC EDUCATION

OVER THE LAST MONTH WE HAVE DISCUSSED THE SEVEN LIBERAL ARTS AND SCIENCES. INTODAYS’ WORLD, THREE OF THE SEVEN WORK TOGETHER AND ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO US AS

MEN AND MASONS. THEY DETERMINE HOW WE RELATE TO EACH OTHER ONE ON ONE AND INPUBLIC. THE FIRST IS LOGIC, WHICH IS THE SCIENCE OF REASONING. IT ENABLES US TO FORM

CLEAR AND DISTINCT IDEAS IN THOUGHT AND LANGUAGE. THE SECOND IS RHETORIC WHICH ISTHE ART OF USING WORDS IN BOTH PRIVATE AND PUBLIC SPEAKING. THE THIRD IS GRAMMAR,WHICH IS USING AND UNDERSTANDING WORDS WHEN SPEAKING AND EXPRESSING OUR IDEAS

APPROPRIATELY IN WRITING.
