MASTER'S MESSAGE

Brethren,

As my year as Worshipful Master comes to a close, I find myself filled with gratitude for the incredible journey we’ve shared together. This year, we aimed to embody the theme of Higher Thoughts, Nobler Deeds, and Greater Achievements, and I believe we have achieved something truly special. Through service, fellowship, and the work we’ve done both within and beyond our Lodge, Weston No. 22 continues to shine as a beacon of Freemasonry in our Colorado and you should all be very proud that!

Now, it’s time to look forward to an exciting transition as we prepare for two important events:

  • Annual Communication – Join us on Wednesday, December 4th for our Annual Communication, where we will have detailed committee reports, hold elections for next year, and spend a little time reflecting on this past year.
  • Officer Installation – On Saturday, December 7th, we will gather for the installation of our officers for the upcoming year. This is a wonderful opportunity to welcome the new leadership of Weston Lodge and show our support for those stepping into new roles of service.

I encourage every brother to attend these events. They represent the culmination of a year’s labor and the beginning of a new chapter in our Lodge’s proud history.

It has been an honor to serve you and to stand in the East on behalf of this Lodge. To every brother who has supported, advised, and walked this journey with me: thank you. Weston Lodge is not defined by one man or one year, but by the collective efforts of all who call it home. I am profoundly grateful and more than a little humbled to have played a small part in its story.

I look forward to continuing to work alongside you all to advance our shared mission and to watching the next generation of leaders bring their energy and vision to our Lodge.

Fraternally,
Josh Levin
Worshipful Master

MEMBER SPOTLIGHT

Brother Rod Dorsett
Originally from Lubbock, Texas, Rod graduated from West Texas A&M and began a 30 year career with Xcel Energy. In 2001 he relocated his family to Colorado to pursue new career opportunities, and currently serves as a Grid Operator.

Outside of work, Rod enjoys golf, snowboarding, and traveling. He is excited to join Masonry, drawn to its traditions of friendship, brotherhood, and community service. Through this involvement, he looks forward to contributing to the success of Weston Lodge #22 and building bonds with the brethren.

MASTER'S MESSAGE

Brethren,

As we move into the month of November, I want to take a moment to reflect on the importance of our efforts and the purpose behind the work we do. This month is going to be one of our busiest yet, with many special events and happenings, including degree work. Each degree is more than a ceremony; it’s the beginning of a new brother’s journey in Freemasonry, and it’s our responsibility to guide and support them on this path. There will be an Entered Apprentice degree on November 13th (Special Meeting) and a  Master Mason degree on November 6th.

In addition to making Masons, I encourage each of us to focus on reinforcing the bonds that unite us as brothers. Our meetings, our gatherings, and our shared work are what keep the spirit of the Lodge alive. Take time to connect with each other, build deeper relationships, and help one another grow in both Masonic and personal pursuits. Please join us for the final Weston Table Lodge on November 9th!

Finally, let us not forget to express our gratitude to the support systems that allow us to commit ourselves to the Craft. Whether it’s our families, our friends, or even the community around us, these pillars make our work possible. A simple thank you can go a long way, and this season of gratitude is a perfect time to show our appreciation. Please do all you can to attend our annual Partner Appreciation Dinner on November 16th!

Together, let’s continue to strive toward higher thoughts, nobler deeds, and greater achievements. November may be busy, but it is in this work that we find our strength and purpose as Masons.

Josh Levin - Worshipful Master
Weston Lodge No. 22

MEMBER SPOTLIGHT

Brother J. Nolan McMahon
Brother McMahon has been living in Colorado since 2011. He loves to live an active Colorado lifestyle and do all the hobbies associated with it such as rock climbing, hiking, hunting, and snowboarding. While he didn’t know much about Freemasonry when he knocked at the door of the Lodge, he is loving learning all of the Masonic knowledge and history. He can’t wait to seek additional light in Masonry and continue his journey!

MASTER'S MESSAGE

Brethren,

As we continue our journey through this Masonic year, I am reminded of our theme—Higher Thoughts, Nobler Deeds, and Greater Achievements. Last month, several of us came together for a road cleanup through the Adopt a Highway program. We rolled up our sleeves, got our hands dirty, and made a tangible impact on our community. This act, simple as it may seem, was a reflection of what we stand for—improving the world around us, one deed at a time.

This month, I am excited to announce another initiative that focuses on the same principle of Nobler Deeds, but in a different form. I am launching a fundraiser that will support the Food Bank of the Rockies. This effort is another opportunity to extend our reach beyond the lodge, impacting those in need and strengthening the bonds of brotherhood through service and charity. I’ll share more details at our first stated meeting in October, and I encourage each of you to get involved in whatever way you can!

As if that weren’t enough to look forward to, we are also preparing for the initiation of three new brothers at our 1st Stated Communication, a testament to the growth and future of our lodge. In addition, we will have the honor of WB Lee Miller presenting on
Brother Marquis de Lafayette at our 2nd State Communication, a chance to deepen our understanding of one of Masonry’s distinguished figures.

Together, let us continue to elevate our thoughts, perform noble deeds, and strive for greater achievements in all we do!

Fraternally,
Josh Levin - Worshipful Master
Weston Lodge No. 22

MEMBER SPOTLIGHT

Bruce Beardsley
Brother Bruce and his wife Amanda have been here in Colorado for a little over two years now, after moving from Las Vegas. Bruce is the Hospital Manager for VCA Animal Hospital in Highlands Ranch. Born and raised in Virginia, right outside Washington DC, Bruce has since traveled the world either as a commercial deep-sea diver or as Remote Physician Extender. Bruce is a huge history buff, and self-proclaimed Super-Nerd. He was drawn to Freemasonry after discovering that his paternal Grandfather had been made a Master Mason at Concordia #13, in Maryland (1961) and then a 32-degree Scottish Rite Mason after that. He hopes to make all my brothers at Weston #22 proud and do as much as I can to further and honor the Fraternity.

MASTER'S MESSAGE

Brethren,

I am thrilled to announce that we will be reconvening at Lodge on September 4th. I’ll keep this message brief, as I want to strongly encourage you to take just 3 minutes to read the accompanying letter detailing the plans and goals for the remainder of this Masonic Year.

I hope you’ve all enjoyed a wonderful summer. Now, it’s time for us to return to our Masonic labors—creating new Masons, strengthening the bonds between us, enhancing our community service, and ensuring that we continue to enjoy our journey together.

Fraternally,
Josh Levin

Nevada 4 & Weston 22 Joint Table Lodge

by Randy Lutton Good of The Order

Please join us for en evening of fellowship at the Ghost Town Lodge. Your RSVP will ensure that you have a seat and something to eat!

The topic of the toasts will be Masons of the Old West. The dress code is jacket and tie. Wine and non-alcoholic options will be served for the toasts. The menu is scheduled to be chicken and andouille gumbo with rice. Reach out well in advance if you have dietary requirements and we will do what we can to accommodate.

Masons of any degree are welcome. The event and dinner are presented at no cost (donations are welcome). There will be Cannons for sale for those who want a nice souvenir.

As much as we hope no one drinks to intemperance, you are invited to bring a sleeping bag or find a room nearby in Central City/Black Hawk.

Fraternally,
WM Randy Lutton & WM Josh Levin

MEMBER SPOTLIGHT

Zachery Booker
Brother Zachery is a Technical Sergeant serving full time in the United States Space Force serving as the Section Chief, Mission Support at Aerospace Data Facility. He came to Masonry out of curiosity, a desire to learn, self-improvement, and camaraderie and has very much enjoyed his time with our Lodge so far. He is a self-described ‘rock hound’ and loves searching for agates, minerals, and other treasures. He has also been a professional video game player (Call of Duty & Halo) and competed while representing the Space Force for 2.5 years. We are excited to have Brother Zachery as part of Weston 22!

MASTER'S MESSAGE

Brethren,

As we enter our second ‘dark’ month of the year, I want to talk about being the ‘light’ by addressing a topic that is particularly relevant in today's climate: the nature of divisive conversations in politics and our role as Masons. As you all know, we keep religion and partisan politics out of the lodge. This tradition upholds our unity and ensures that our diverse membership can work together harmoniously.

However, this does not lessen the importance of each of us being engaged and informed citizens. Freemasonry teaches us the values of truth, morality, and brotherly love. These principles guide us not only within the walls of the lodge but also in our daily interactions with the world around us.

In these times of heightened political tension and division, we have a unique opportunity and responsibility to be beacons of civility to the world around us. Our Masonic teachings equip us with the tools to engage in thoughtful and respectful discourse with those who hold differing views. By demonstrating patience, understanding, and a commitment to civil dialogue, we can set an example for others. Thoughtful discussion with people that have differing views on the world around us is incredibly valuable and I highly encourage it.

Let us remember that our actions speak volumes. Whether we are discussing current events, participating in community activities, or simply engaging in casual conversations, we have the power to influence those around us positively. Let us strive to embody the virtues of a Mason in all aspects of our lives.

I can’t wait to be back in lodge with you all shortly!

Fraternally,
Josh Levin
Worshipful Master

MEMBER SPOTLIGHT

Brother Adrian Perez is originally from Los Angeles California. His career brought him to Colorado and he is currently a Police Officer with the Aurora Police Department. It was “good luck”, according to Adrian, that he found his way to Masonry. He has enjoyed getting to know all the Brothers and is looking forward to building his legacy for his children!

MASTER'S MESSAGE

Brethren of Weston Lodge,

As we go dark for the months of July and August, I want to take a moment to commend each and every one of you for a fantastic first half of the year. Your dedication and commitment have truly made our lodge flourish.

I would like to extend special recognition to all the officers for their hard work and contributions. A particular note of thanks goes to our Senior Warden, Brother Tom Hearn, for stepping up admirably and conducting an excellent Fellow Craft Degree during our last meeting in June. His leadership and dedication are exemplary and truly appreciated.

July and August are vital times for us to rest and recharge. I encourage all brethren to enjoy this period by spending quality time with friends and family, engaging in outdoor activities, and taking care of yourselves. Let us use this time to rejuvenate, so that we can return to the lodge in September refreshed and ready to finish the year strong!

Enjoy your summer, stay safe, and I look forward to seeing you all in September.

Fraternally your Worshipful Master
Josh Levin

MEMBER SPOTLIGHT

Brother Steven Benedict was born and raised in the Denver area. He joined Masonry because his father and uncle were/are Masons. While he didn’t initially plan on following in their footsteps, when his friends Austin Harris and Ryan joined Weston Lodge, that all changed. He came to poker, met other Masons, and knew it was the right place for him. His experience has been great, and he loves all the new brothers he has met since joining. He’s proud to be a Mason and touched that the brothers will always be there for him!

MASTER'S MESSAGE

Greetings Brethren,

As we prepare for our upcoming stated meeting, I extend my warmest congratulations once again to our newly initiated Entered Apprentices and my appreciation to the officers of Nevada Lodge No. 4 for sharing their work with us. I look forward to witnessing your continued journey in Freemasonry!

At our 1st Stated Communication, we will hear several EA proficiencies and then have our Masonic Discussion. For that debate, please consider this question: Is it the ritual or the fraternal aspects of Masonry that hold greater importance for you? I encourage all brethren to come prepared to share their perspectives, insights, and experiences on this matter!

June holds special significance for our Senior Warden, as he takes on multiple responsibilities within our lodge. Not only will he be showcasing his culinary skills by preparing dinner for us at the second stated meeting, but he will also be leading the officer meeting, guiding our practice session, and sitting in the East during the 2nd Stated Communication in June. That will be a great meeting as he will be orchestrating a memorable Fellowcraft degree ceremony that evening. Brethren, let us extend our full support and gratitude to our Senior Warden as he takes on these crucial roles with dedication and enthusiasm.

I invite our Senior Warden to share a brief message with us:
Tom: I want to congratulate and welcome our newest entered apprentices: Bruce Beardsley and Zach Booker. Looking forward to having them in lodge and being a part of their progression.
I am honored to be able to sit in the East for the 2nd communication of the month. Hope everyone is doing well and I am excited to see everyone in lodge. Please have a great summer and stay safe while we are dark.
Fraternally,
Tom Hearn, Senior Warden

Thank you, brethren, for your attention and support. Let us continue to uphold the principles of our Craft and strengthen the bonds of brotherhood that unite us all.

Fraternally your Worshipful Master,
Josh Levin
