May Monitor Entry

Greetings from Alki Lodge No. 152.

The month of April was almost as busy as the past months. We had our Stated Meeting in April 7th with RW Gale H. Kenney as our Guest Speaker, who spoke about the four generations of Masonry and how environmental changes affected people’s lives, thoughts and learning from generation to generation. Once again, our Ladies joined us in the Lodge Room on a call off session and enjoyed hearing another inspiring and very interesting pitch, this time, from our SGW. Thank you, RW Sir.

We had such a great dinner prepared by WB Alan Sawyer, WB Jeff Tosh, WB Greg Martin and Bro. Michael Mann. Thank you for sharing the product of your culinary skills. Also, thanks to ladies who brought some home-made specialties.

The degree team at Alki Lodge No. 152 is now getting busier with new members joining the Lodge. We have initiated Bro. Scott Marshall as our youngest Entered Apprentice Mason in April 14th and we passed a degree of Fellowcraft Mason to Bro. Alex Madlangbayan and Bro. Jason Tharpe in April 21st. We also welcomed Bro. Steve Wilson as plural member during our Stated Meeting in April 7th. Hope this trend keeps on going.

We also joined the traditional gathering of the Brethren from the nine (9) different lodges in the south sound, dubbed as the Wednesday Night Lodges. The event was held in April 23rd and was hosted by Parkland-Lakewood Lodge #299 at Dryer Masonic Center, 306 134th St S, Parkland, WA. 98444. What a great fellowship we had with the Brethren and thank you for the great accommodation.
