Grand Master

Thank You

When the Lord needed a warrior to defeat evil, He said whom shall we send? Christ said here am I send me. Since then, warriors have spent Christmas apart from their families on the frontline around the world defending Freedom and protecting Peace on Earth. At this time we want to send a special Thank You to all our Veterans and Prayers that the Lord would watch over and protect all our men and women in uniform around the world let them feel our Love and give them Peace.

Grand Master’s Social Media Message

January 13, 2021

Brethren, if you have not reviewed the Social Media Policy lately, I encourage you to do so. While posting on the internet can be fun, rewarding, and educational, at times it can be challenging, especially when engaged in a subject near and dear to your heart. Emotions can sometimes get in the way of expressing yourself in the manner that would be appropriate as a representative of our fraternity.

Having social discourse is a freedom we all enjoy. Please use the social medium platforms we have available today in a positive way and be respectable of others.

Clarification to COVID-19 Update 16 December 2020

Brethren, just a point of clarification. If the brethren of your lodge decide that it is in the best interest of the lodge to not meet because of the pandemic issue, I want it to be the consensus of the members who attend on a regular basis, not the Worshipful Master only. The Worshipful Master can determine this consensus in the manner in which he chooses whether it be in a regular lodge meeting or a special called meeting for that purpose, or by contacting these brethren one on one, or in an informal setting with two or more brethren present. Now that a vaccine is in use, hopefully soon we will be back to normal, whatever that normal may be.

Fraternally,

Tommy Morrow

Grand Master
