Welcome to The West Lancashire Mark Masons Web Site | |||

| Brethren, | |||
| Thank you to everyone who gave terrific support on Remembrance Sunday throughout the Province. We are now moving into one of the busiest parts of the Masonic season on the run up to Christmas. It only seems a blink of the eye since last Christmas, but the Province has packed in an enormous amount of work in this last year. A record number of team visits and several 50th and 60th celebrations to which the team members have given wonderful support. The attendance of West Lancashire Mark Masons at Grand Lodge increases year on year, which has not gone un-noticed at MMH and I am sure this will continue at the Royal Ark Mariner Assembly in December when we will have four recipients, W Bro Giles Berkley, W. Bro Geoff Bury, W Bro Philip Gunning and W Bro David Rotheram, invested at the meeting. If you wish to attend the meeting is open to all Royal Ark Mariners and it is always a good day out (or two). The Royal Ark Mariner Ambassadors are now established in almost every Lodge and I thank the Brethren who have taken on these roles for their commitment to the order. | |||
| This new initiative is proving very successful indeed with many Lodges having new candidates at most meetings, some having more candidates than meetings allow and are doubling up ceremonies to get the new members in. | |||
| The number of Royal Ark Mariner members reflects on the number of Grand Ranks the Province receives and although we will never have enough to honour all our senior members it means that those who do receive Grand Rank, and the final decision rests with Grand Lodge as we can only recommend a Brother, are worthy of that rank. | |||
| The atmosphere of all the Grand Lodge meetings is outstanding, something which I am sure you will all enjoy and be made most welcome. |
|||
| Enjoy this busy part of the season and I welcome all the Worshipful Masters recently Installed. I encourage you to visit other Mark Lodges thus creating even more harmony within our order and remember if the Travelling Keystone comes to your Lodge take a deputation and pass it along to another Mark Lodge near to you as soon as possible. Please also send in a report of that visit to the webmaster, W. Bro Mike Beesley with a photograph if possible, to be published here. | |||
