D.D.G.M.’s Message
Greetings Brethren:
I am honoured and excited to
have been elected as the D.D.G.M. for Algoma District and I thank you all
for this privilege.
My goal is to encourage members
of the district to collaboratively work together in focusing on the
following:
1) Raising the awareness of
Masonry in the community through “Friend to
Friend” practices
2) Motivating brethren who
don’t regularly attend to become more active
in their lodges through “Brother to Brother”
practices; and
3) Actively striving to
improve Lodge Work using resources that are available within the
District as well as Grand Lodge.
The sum total of the three will
result in increased numbers of members and more fellowship developing
between members.
With the combined efforts of
all of you in your respective areas, the year has the potential to be very
successful for Masonry within the District.
I would like to congratulate
our past D.D.G.M. R. W. Bro. Marvin Salmi. We all have appreciated your
hard work and dedication to the district.
Congratulations are also
extended to V.W. Bro. George Morton on his appointment as a Grand Steward.
As the District Secretary, your efforts on our behalf have not gone
unnoticed.
Finally, R.W. Bro. Robert Manz
was appointed to the Board of General Purposes. His presence at Grand
Lodge ensures that our District is capably represented and our voice will
be heard.
The other appointments for
District Committees are listed on the 2010-2011 Trestle Board.
In the Grand Master’s
address 2010, he referred to the “ 21st-Century
Renaissance of Freemasonry that we are experiencing“.
He spoke of a “renewed interest by a new
generation of young men seeking admission to the ministries and privileges
of Ancient Freemasonry.” By encouraging their
involvement, he suggests that our future is ensured.
The challenge is now ours to
move forward.
R. W. Bro.
