Upcoming Events
Happy New Year brethren!
The Portland Valley Membership Committee is gearing up for our Spring Reunion which will be Friday and Saturday, April 10th and 11th, 2015. After such a large reunion class last fall, and the renewed interest in the Scottish Rite Degrees, we are excited about another successful reunion in the Spring.
Your Membership Committee will be busy scheduling Blue Lodge visitations to promote the benefits of membership in the Scottish Rite, and we would love your help! Blue Lodge visitations will start the last week of February and go all through the month of March. If you are interested in joining us with some Blue Lodge Visitations, or want us to come to your Blue Lodge, get in touch with me or contact Nate in the office.
If you know of a brother who is interested in joining the Scottish Rite, give him a petition! All Scottish Rite brethren should carry a petition on them at all times in case they meet a curious brother. Also suggest that he look at our website where he can download a petition online.
There is so much more to Freemasonry and we have such a special brotherhood at the Scottish Rite, it would be a shame for any Master Mason not to experience it.
**The next Membership Committee meeting will be on Tuesday February 24th at 7:30PM, after the Scottish Rite University.
Please contact me anytime if you would like to get involved, and check the website calendar regularly for updates on events, degrees and meetings.
The 24th Degree will be conferred on Tuesday February 17th, and we hope to see you all there! Don’t forget to call or email the office with your dinner reservations no later than Noon the day before.
I look forward to seeing you all on Tuesday, the “Rite” night!
