See you this evening!

Tomorrow evening, June 2nd, will be our last stated meeting before summer. Dinner will be D&R pork chops, green beans (wouldn't be a Masonic meal without them!), and of course our traditional June strawberry shortcake with ice cream!

Please join us as on Tuesday evening as things have changed at Battle Ground Lodge in terms of our meeting structure. As you have seen over the last few months, the lodge voted on and adopted the Executive Committee Program. That means that the officers (and any member wishing to attend) meets one week prior to handle the administrative work of the lodge.

This adoption and by law change allows us to free up our meetings for what Freemasonry truly is; a transformative, educational art designed to help a good man smooth his rough ashlar into a more perfect ashlar.

Instead of a boring business meeting, our meetings will now be devoted to fellowship and education! We will still have a short business meeting. Emphasis on short.

From what I have been told by our Education Committee chairman, our Masonic Education for the evening will be unique and you will be very pleased with what you see and hear.

The Worshipful Master and the officers of Battle Ground Lodge are looking forward to seeing everyone Tuesday night at 6:30pm for dinner and fellowship!

Last night we gathered to practice for an upcoming Entered Apprentice degree in March. While at the lodge, two of our new Brothers who are currently Entered Apprentices were in attendance and were studying their crossfire lectures with their mentors.

Our lodge is busy with degree work and other activities both at the lodge and in the community. Good men of all ages are joining our fraternity and it's a beautiful thing to see.

As one of the Past Masters of Battle Ground Lodge it feels good to see how the years of working in the symbolic quarries of our fraternity have built a very strong and a very active lodge. Last night, while sitting back and watching the Brothers working together, I was reminded of the beehive symbol in our ritual. I was also reminded of Psalm 133. "Behold how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!"

If you're in the Lafayette, Indiana area and are interested in learning more about our fraternity, you can contact us here or on our website.
