Last night, the Brothers of X.L. Neal Lodge No. 588 had the opportunity to raise a Brother, and it was truly a great experience from start to finish. The level of dedication, teamwork, and commitment to the Craft was on full display.
We extend a sincere thank you to the Brothers of Derwin Brown Lodge #599, PHA and H.R. Butler Lodge #23 for your presence and support. It meant a lot to have you all in the building with us.
A deeper thank you goes out to the Brothers of Derwin Brown Lodge No. 599 for your hands-on assistance during the raising. Your willingness to jump in without hesitation and support us speaks volumes about true Brotherhood and unity. That kind of collaboration does not go unnoticed, and we truly appreciate it.
We also want to thank DDGM Matthew Lewis, ADDGM Don Dukes, and ADDGM Seth Gholston for their attendance and continued guidance. Your leadership and presence are always appreciated.
Moments like this remind us what the work is all about!
