MASTER'S MESSAGE
The true value of a man should be seen in what he gives and not in what he is able to receive.
"Albert Einstein"
Brothers we have an obligation as human beings and as Masons, to give more to the world. What is the purpose of "working" to become better men if we don’t share our knowledge and example with the rest of our brothers and the world?
Masonry is slowly losing speed, we see less new members joining every year, and some of the ones that joined, are now gone because they didn’t find any purpose in being Masons.
We are very lucky to belong to a great Lodge. But we need all members to be involved. Paying your dues is not enough. Where are you? Are our lives that busy that we can not spend a few hours a month to share our knowledge and help the Fraternity?
The whole world needs better men now more than ever. We need all of you.
With brotherly love
Worshipful Master
Francisco Mier–y- Teran

Dining Room Makeover
Over the summer we completed a few projects including a makeover for the dining room, new blinds for the library and new curtains for the meeting room.
Part one of the dining room makeover was repainting to give it a new bright and clean look. Today we completed the second part of the makeover by installing new blinds in both the dining room and library. Its an amazing difference and will create a good impression on visitors to the lodge. Special thanks to all those who helped make this happen WM Cisco, Bruce Swedal, Walt Ashlock, Larry Page, Benjamin Bridge, Michael Cardoza (and his father in law), Josh Levin, Loren Kohler, Daniel Croll, Larry Wullbrandt and all the Weston Masonic Temple Association who approved funds.

MASTER'S MESSAGE
Brothers I hope you had a wonderful summer with your families and friends. I remember back a few years ago (only a few) when I was in school, and at the end of the school year, me and my buddies, we were all sad because we weren’t going to hang out during recess or after school hours any more till next year, after summer. Then after that summer, the night before the first day of the new school year, I was so nervous and excited about going back, see all my friends, and talk about everything we did that summer. Just thinking about it makes me feel very happy, it sure was a great time in my life, and I believe it was in yours as well. So my brethren, summer is over again, it is time to go back to Lodge and exchange stories about what we did during this time away from each other. It sure is a great feeling, knowing that I will see my dear friends again.
See you in Lodge Brothers.
With brotherly love
Worshipful Master
Francisco Mier–y- Teran

Downtown Littleton Parking
As is common in other popular downtown areas, parking in Downtown Littleton, Colorado can be challenging at times. The map below can assist in finding parking locations within a reasonable distance of Weston Masonic Temple. When planning your visit, it is advisable to arrive early and give yourself time to find parking.
Enlarge the map area near Weston Masonic Temple (denoted by the blue pin) to see members only rectangular parking areas next to the building - click on those rectangular areas to view information on those spaces. The map guide for street parking is available by clicking on the little arrow to the left of the map title "Map of Downtown Littleton Parking".
Follow the link for a printable map of Downtown Littleton Colorado Parking.
We Need Volunteers – Saturday August 24, 2019 @ 8:00 AM
The Temple Board has approved funds for new blinds in the dining room and library. Also approved are funds for painting materials for the dining room at the lodge.
Now we need a group of volunteers to make it happen.
We have a tentative date of Saturday August 24, 2019 @ 8 AM to paint the dining area.
The plan is for Walt to tape if off the night before. Painting will begin Saturday morning. We will have a few people trimming it out, a few following with rollers and a few cleaning up behind.
Lunch will be provided.
After the painting is complete. We will get the new blinds picked up and install them.
Let Bruce Swedal know whether or not you will be there and start spreading the word and recruiting others ASAP. If we get a decent crew, this will probably not take that long.
Thanks!
Sept 4th Stated Meeting

MASTER'S MESSAGE
"To enlarge the sphere of social happiness is worthy in the benevolent design of a Masonic institution; and it is more fervently to be wished, that the conduct of every member of the Fraternity, as well as those publications that discover the principles which actuate them; may tend to convince mankind that the grand object of Masonry is to promote the happiness of the human race."
-George Washington
Brothers. Each one of us are a very small part of this great Human Race.
Let us not forget that we are not special, we are just fortunate to be here at this time, on this please at this moment.
Are we worthy of this blessing? Are we doing our part to make this a better world?
With brotherly love
