May 2022 Master’s Message
Fortitude, Prudence, Temperance, and Justice The cardinal virtues of Masonry were the focus of Jenks’ May communication.

April 2022 Master’s Message

The brothers and officers of Jenks came out in force to support him. His first visitation was to Overseas Lodge, and while I wanted to be there I was on a ship 1200 miles away so could not attend…. Or so I thought, on that night I started receiving photos showing that I was in attendance, well...
March 2022 Master’s Message
Greetings my Brothers, The variety of changes which each season displays to the discerning eye reminds me that we are already a quarter of the way through our Masonic year. Spring is here, there are buds on the trees, and the sun was still up when I got to Lodge on our meeting night for the first time this year, I would love to have added it was warm, but alas, that was not the case! It’s going to be a busy month this April. The officers will be attending two DDGM visitations this month,...

February’s Stated Communication began a little early as we knew we had a lot of work to do. We were joined this month by our District Deputy Grand Master RW Rick Baccus...
