Despite our collective efforts, many of our Brothers have acquired this illness and I encourage you and your lodges to continue your outreach efforts. Now is the time to put the tenets of our order to the test in the support of our extended lodge family. The holidays are fast approaching. Consider your Thanksgiving plans with care and consider the implications given COVID-19. If you are a deer hunter, please stay safe! Lastly, please reach out to your WM or Secretary to find out the status of your winter meetings or activities. Many lodges are cancelling events due to the explosion of COVID-19 cases in District #4. This is a continually changing situation. Save yourself a wasted trip and call ahead! Until we meet again Brothers, I remain at your service.

These will likewise be important to your understanding of what you will have seen and heard. These materials call for and deserve your careful study. SEEKING LIGHT Preparation You have been elected to membership in the Masonic Fraternity. Congratulations! In your petition soliciting this honor you made several significant statements.
