Further, I look forward to guiding our lodge as Master, relying on the wise discretion and counsel of our Past Masters and learned brothers, your moving officer line comprised of Wardens, Deacons and Stewards are capable and ready to carry out the duties of their office. Your non moving officer line comprised of a Chaplain, Treasurer, Marshal and Secretary will keep us on the level with the Great Architect, stay fiscally healthy, marching square and organize our communications and events. We will all work towards fulfilling the wishes of the lodge membership, while keeping Wayne Lodge active in various Masonic labors and our local community events.

Further, as for your part, I will be asking the brethren that normally sit on the sidelines to take on a small role in the ritual work from time to time; to that end newly raised brothers will be given small ritual parts to learn by me or other lodge officers. For if we don’t all feel needed we will become unnecessary, and will have no reason to attend lodge. I believe that every brother in our lodge is needed and necessary, hence participation is key to our success and with an active general membership at weekly ritual meetings and sponsored lodge events, we can maintain our high standing and elite guard status as a member of the Michigan Masonic Community.

Further and lastly, I extend a renewed invitation to all inactive brethren to return to lodge and participate, travel with us, and share your Masonic knowledge and experiences.

Sincerely & Fraternally,

Garry M. Palucki WM
