If anyone says, "I love God," yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen.
~St. John the Evangelist
Happy St. John the Evangelist day to all the Freemasons of the world!
Bro. Colbert G. Rabaya of Macajalar Lodge No. 184, Cagayan de Oro City under the jurisdition of the MW Grand Lodge of the Philippines, is reaching out to Freemasons from all over the world to help out our Brothers in the Philippines who are currently in great distress. I have no ready money at hand to donate but I have pledged to donate 50% of my sales (from Dec 20-26) from my online store www.fraternalties.com
You don't need to buy from my shop to help. I am well aware that the shopping for gifts season is over and most of us are now broke. If you can help out in anyway, let me know and I'll connect you with Bro. Rabaya.
Fraternally,

FraternalTies would like to congratulate the Brothers from Harmonie Lodge No. 699, Amherst, New York on being added to Academia Lodge No. 847's list of "Traditional Lodges". Exemplary craftsmanship, dear Brothers! We hope to follow your lead.http://academialodge.org/

This is a replica of the George Washington Inaugural Bible given to me by Bro. George Filippidis the 250th Master of St. John's Lodge No 1, AYM, F&AM in the Grand Lodge Of The State Of New York. It is the Bible that Bro. George Washington (and several other U.S. Presidents) took his Presidential oath on. It is now under the custody of St. John's Lodge No.1. Thank you Bro. Filippidis for this wonderful gift.

All kidding aside, we all had a very wonderful, though provoking, inspiring, challenging and most of all- FUN night! Thank you to everyone who have attended the Doric Lodge No. 316 Installation of Officers. Congratulations to newly elected WM Raoul Gomes and to the elected and appointed officers. Good times ahead!

Sorry... Can't resist. This is just too good to pass up. This is the last one I promise.
