Warren the TLC Bear paid a visit to Trevethin Lodge last night! Trevethin Lodge 6008 has donated £1000 to the Mon TLC Appeal and in doing so, became Platinum Patrons. “On behalf of the team at the Mon TLC Appeal we would like to sincerely thank the Trevethin Lodge members for supporting us with this very generous donation. We rely on support like this to be able to continue giving these wonderful little bears to children who love and need them. Keep an eye out for Warren as he visits other lodges in the Province as they too become Patrons of The Mon TLC Appeal. ”
A fine line up of visiting Worshipful Masters from around the Province witnessed the raising of Gareth Poretta to the sublime degree of a Master Mason.Worshipful Master Neil Rowlands, led a confident team and the visitors enjoyed the ceremony!
Monday afternoon saw Monmouthshire Freemasons hold their Provincial Grand Lodge at the Holiday Inn, Newport. What a fantastic day.
Congratulations to all those who received appointments and promotions — your hard work and dedication truly shine. A full house enjoyed a day filled with friendship, an excellent ceremony, and fine food shared in great company. Our thanks to the distinguished visitors who travelled from far and wide to be with us and make the day even more special.
The Brethren from Pontypool were well represented as the below slideshow demonstrates.
A successful night at Trevethin Lodge 6008 where Worshipful Master Neil and his team of officers carried out an excellent Second Degree ceremony! All brethren were on top form, from the Inner Guard all the way up to Worshipful Master himself. What made it even more special was a fraternal visit from the brethren of Henllys Lodge filling the lodge and helping towards a wonderfully fun Festive Board! And so to next month!
Remember non-masons, if you’re interested in Masonry, the first step is to get in touch!
