A special thank you to R:. H:. Fernando Pavon for leading last night’s District 27 School of Instruction hosted by Hibiscus Lodge No. 275 F&AM.

The evening focused on the proper Opening and Closing of the Lodge, providing our Brothers an opportunity to strengthen their ritual work, ask questions, and continue developing together.

Thank you to all the Brothers who attended, participated, and contributed to a great evening of Masonic education, fellowship, and Brotherly engagement.

We strongly encourage Brothers from throughout District 27 to attend the upcoming Schools of Instruction. These sessions are a valuable opportunity to sharpen our proficiency, learn from one another, strengthen our Lodges, and continue preserving the quality of our Masonic work.

Hibiscus Lodge No. 275 F&AM is proud to support District 27 and the continued growth and education of our Craft.

This year's Hibiscus Lodge No. 275 Past Master's Dinner was held at Apizza Brooklyn Resto + Vino in honor of Worshipful Ruben Jimenez, who faithfully served as Treasurer of our Lodge for many years.

Service is one of the defining aspects of our Brotherhood that binds us together. It was the vibrant and reflective theme of an evening where Brethren gathered in Friendship and Brotherly Love to share a meal, enjoy meaningful conversations, and honor one of our own.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to Worshipful Ruben Jimenez for his years of faithful service, unwavering commitment, and devotion to Hibiscus Lodge No. 275.

Thank you to everyone who was able to join us and make the evening a memorable celebration of fellowship, friendship, and service.

Last night, Hibiscus Lodge No. 275 had the honor of receiving Right Worshipful District Deputy Grand Master Daniel Molina, aka "The Professor," and his committee, "Ocean 27," for his Official Visit. He was accompanied by District Instructor Right Worshipful Fernando Pavon. Junior Grand Deacon Right Worshipful Adrian Castro was also in attendance.

Our Brothers and guests were pleased with RW DDGM Molina's very informative presentation entitled "Between the Grand East and the Craft: The Office of the District Deputy Grand Master."

Our Worshipful Master, Jorge Fernandez Pla, received a Certificate of Outstanding Achievement in Masonic Education presented to our Lodge, along with a plaque recognizing our Excellence in Masonic Education as the recipient of the Grand Master's Zone Award.

It was a wonderful night filled with harmony and Brotherly Love. Thank you to all the Brothers and guests who attended.

Last night at Hibiscus Lodge No. 275, our Junto brought the Brethren and guests together for a fascinating presentation by Brother William on Quantum Physics, and Quantum Mechanics.

Brother William led an engaging discussion exploring some of the most profound questions in science and philosophy: the nature of reality, how the universe operates at its smallest levels, the limits of human perception, and whether what we experience as “reality” may be far more complex than it appears.

It was a powerful evening of education, curiosity, and open discussion. Presentations like this remind us that Masonry is not only about tradition, but also about the continual pursuit of Light, knowledge, and deeper understanding.

Thank you to Brother William for sharing his time and insight, and to all the Brothers and guests who attended and participated.

Join us for Junto every Tuesday at 6:30 PM at the Scottish Rite Building.

A Message of Patriotic Celebration from the Grand Master

Dear Brethren:

On this joyous occasion marking 250 years of the United States of America, we pause to celebrate the enduring spirit of liberty, resilience, and unity that has defined our great nation since its founding in 1776. From the bold declarations of independence to the countless strides toward a more perfect union, America stands as a beacon of hope and opportunity for the world.

As we gather with family, friends, and communities to honor this historic milestone, may your celebrations be filled with safe and happy moments—fireworks lighting up the night sky, parades echoing with pride, barbecues shared in fellowship, and heartfelt reflections on the freedoms we hold dear. Let us embrace the spirit of gratitude and optimism that binds us together.

We extend our deepest appreciation to the brave men and women of our armed forces, first responders, and police officers—past and present—whose unwavering service, sacrifice, and dedication protect the ideals upon which this nation was built. Your courage ensures that the American dream continues to shine brightly for generations to come. Thank you for your commitment to defending liberty, preserving our way of life, and keeping our communities safe every day.

Happy 250th Anniversary, America! May God continue to bless these United States.

Fraternally and with patriotic pride,
Haskell R. Vest Jr
Grand Master
