Message from Worshipful Master,
William A. Gardenhire
Greetings,
I am humbled and honored to serve as your 93rd Worshipful Master for 2024.
The last few years have been tumultuous with covid, sickness and death. But through it all, GOD has blessed us, individually and collectively. It is with the assurance of His Word, that I stand before you today with optimism, that GOD will answer our prayers and give us victory in 2024 and beyond.
Optimism is contagious, and we can spread it like the trowel of brotherly love, with joy. This is what I am asking all of us to do in 2024 and beyond. We know we have multiple problems, but I believe that together we can meet each challenge and overcome every one of them.
​
Fraternally,
Bro. William A. Gardenhire
Worshipful Master
