Brethren,

We just recently celebrated two great milestones. We had the first Master Mason degree of the year and we had our lodge 100th Year Anniversary party. While I wish the party could have been extended to the greater Masonic family, it was wonderful to see so many of our brothers and guests together again. I can't tell you how much it has meant to sit in the East for both of these occasions. I look forward to our more public Cornerstone rededication in September and continuing to celebrate our anniversary.

On that note, I have some disappointing news. With some of the materials being hard to find and the date fast approaching, I have discussed the entryway getting done this summer with the temple board. Unfortunately we agreed that it feels rushed and we want to make sure when we do get it done we do all that we set out to do. We will still be fund raising through out the year and we plan to get everything done the summer after. All the efforts to get the floor will not be wasted, I will personally see that we get everything done. A small delay will still result in an entryway that shows the grandeur of our lodge. We expect to announce a raffle and some other activities soon. As we close out the first half of this year, there are many more things to look forward to in the lodge. We have a table lodge set for the end of this month. The Junior Warden will be sitting in the East in the second meeting in May. We have a few summer activities for the enjoyment of the brothers and family. We will continue to keep everyone informed.

Brethren,

We are back to blue brothers, and it is a good place to be. We are now able to be back to almost full strength and are moving forward with our building anniversary party and reopening our lodge breakfast. I ask all brothers continue to take all the recommended precautions while we wrap up this pandemic. I know many of the brothers have had a chance to get vaccinated or are in progress, but you never know who you might pass something to unintentionally. Please be careful until we can remove the restrictions completely.

As we come up to the actual date of our anniversary, I would ask all the brothers to consider the meaning of the date. This is over 100 years in the community; this is 100 years having a dedicated presence in Littleton. Let us be good stewards in the community and peaceable citizens. Let our light shine and show what good men can do. As we prepare to initiate three more candidates let us all hold up the high standards to which we aspire and spread liberally the cement of brotherly love.

Fraternal Greetings,

Brethren,

As things continue to move in a positive direction,we are now entering Yellow restrictions for Arapahoe County.With the new change,we are starting to move back to our normal social calendar and will restart our 2nd Saturday breakfast in March. While things continue to get better, please remember to continue with masks and precautions to keep everyone safe.We are getting continued reports of brothers getting sick and we hope that no family will get seriously ill as vaccines are becoming more widely available.

Beyond eased restrictions, we can look forward to commemorating the year with special activities including a soon to be announced social event in April. Details will be available soon for a gathering for Masons and their guests for the 100th anniversary of the building. In addition, the Temple Board and Worshipful Master are working on a plan to refresh the front entryway. Fundraising and progress will be reported throughout the year. We are at a milestone for our lodge and building and it is a great opportunity for us to remember the brotherly love and our place in the community.

Brethren,
As we start our year in earnest, I am happy to say our first meeting was a success and not only did we have a great first meeting, but we were able to pass three brothers. Quite an accomplishment for our first meeting. I am looking forward to a safe and happy lodge attendance. Please keep in mind the guidelines to mask up, and limit numbers. We have been good with the number of brothers in lodge, but may have to restrict them if we grow too much. I look forward to soon allowing all brothers in to lodge as soon as the government restrictions are eased.

Until then we will continue as many activities and meetings as are possible and do our best to reach out to the brethren. I encourage all the brothers to keep in touch and let us know if there is anything we can do to help. Any ideas for safe gatherings and ways to keep in touch are appreciated. We will all get through this together. I hope by the end of the year we will safely be past this pandemic and on to better things in fellowship together.

With Greatest Respect,
Bro. Benjamin
