December 2020

​Wardens and Brethren,
 
I hope all had a safe and happy Thanksgiving, and continue to be safe through the holiday season.
 
Since our last meeting, Grand Master has decided to close temples for the foreseeable future, a decision that must have been difficult, but necessary to make.  So this means until further notice, Franklin Lodge will be meeting virtually, which also could mean our annual communication may be done virtually as well. This also means Franklin will not be having its annual holiday party, which was one of my favorite events here at the Lodge. 
 
For December's meeting, this will be primarily a business meeting. To be honest, it's been tough to plan programs during this mostly virtual Masonic year. So, before I go any further, I want to thank all that stepped forward and spoke to Franklin Lodge, even in these times, we have some fantastic speakers and topics.  One of my goals was to have Masonic orientated programs, and for the most part they have been. This will be continuing this month, as W:. Dan Rzewuski stepped forward and offered to do a presentation on the Scottish Rite.
 
Happy Holidays,
Ralph Brunson
Master
Franklin Lodge #20
