Trestle Board

Dear Brethren,

I hope this message reaches everyone in good health and good spirits. Our February communication was another great evening of fellowship and masonic growth to say the least. We had a solid turnout from our Brothers, along with visiting Brothers who traveled to be with us. Their dedication to the craft and willingness to make the journey is truly appreciated. Seeing Brothers come together reminds me of the strength of our bond and the shared commitment we have to Freemasonry. No matter the distance, our principles unites us, and our Lodge remains a welcoming home for all who seek Light.

One task that I promised to fulfill is the proposal to amend our Lodge’s Bylaws. As we continue to build and refine our Masonic edifice, it is necessary to review and adapt our guiding document to ensure they serve the best interest of the Lodge and its members. These proposed changes will be formally presented during our next communication, where they will be discussed and, in time, voted on. This is an opportunity for all members to be involved in shaping the future of our Lodge. I encourage each of you to take the time to be present at our next meeting. Our Lodge is built upon the collective efforts of its members and every voice matters!!

Looking ahead, I am excited to announce the first of many MICHAEL P. WINKLER “PIZZA AND WINE” NIGHT,  a special gathering designed to bring aspirants, candidates, and Brothers together in a relaxed and welcoming setting. This event will take place on June 17th, 2025 in the Jacobean Room on the 8th floor. It will be a chance for those interested in the craft to meet the Brothers, ask questions, and share their thoughts, while we also learn more about them. This is an opportunity to foster connections, build relationships, and introduce good men to the Brotherhood we hold dear. SPREAD THE WORD! FLYERS COMING SOON!

As we continue forward, I encourage each of you to stay committed to your journey in Freemasonry. Seek Truth, stand by it, and uphold it even when it is difficult or uncomfortable. Growth comes not from ease but from reflection and perseverance of our personal and unique journey. Our Lodge is only as strong as the Brothers within it. Through dedication, unity, and continuous self improvement, we ensure its lasting success. Let us move forward together, always striving to be better men, better Brothers, Better Masons!!

Fraternally,
W.·. Sully Fernandez
