Masters Message April 2021

Greetings Brothers,

This month we will welcome our DDGM, R∴W∴Andre H. Faria, Jr. for his Visitation. I am asking that all wishing to attend make a reservation and we will follow Department of Health guidelines on capacity. We will continue to monitor state and local guidelines for any changes. Masks will be required for all attending, physical distancing guidelines will be in place and health screening will occur. To give all an equal opportunity to make a reservation, they will not be accepted prior to 5 pm on Wednesday, April 14th. The email address to request a reservation is This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. you will receive a confirmation.

I want to thank the Worshipful Chancellor of the Collegium Luminosum, Timothy L. Culhane, for his excellent presentation on SaintPatrickfor for the March communication! The presentation for April is still To Be Determined as most organizations are not yet back to giving in-person presentations. Expect an email from the Secretary, as well as an Event page on our Facebook group shortly. I want to encourage any Brothers who have not joined our private Facebook group, to do so. Also, please register through Grandview (https://ri.gvsoftware.com/users/sign_in)and make sure all your contact information is up to date.

I am excited that the vaccines are now available to many and the officers and I are here to help. If you need help to get an appointment or a ride to your appointment, please contact us. I also want to encourage everyone eligible for a vaccine to get one. And even if you have been vaccinated, please continue to remain vigilant in observing all recommended mitigation efforts.

Please make an effort to attend one of the two presentations by AFSP in support of the WalkoutofDarknessfundraiser. There will be one on May 10thand one on May 17th. The details can be found within this communication.

Please help me to welcome and congratulate Logia Libertad UDas the first Spanish-speaking Lodge in RI that was recently granted a Dispensation by the Grand Master. Many exceptional Masons have worked hard to make this happen and it is fantastic to see that effort’s results.

As always, I stand ready to help, aid, and assist the brethren in any way I can and with all the resources available to me.

Stay safe and stay well, Brothers!

Fraternally,

Scott E. Miller
Worshipful Master
