Worshipful Master's June 2026 Message
Brethren,
As we enter the month of June and prepare to go dark for the summer season, we are reminded that
all things in life move in cycles. The changing of seasons speaks to us of both endings and
beginnings — of loss, reflection, renewal, and hope.
Within the past year, many among us have felt the weight of sorrow, the sting of absence, and the
quiet grief that accompanies the passing of loved ones, friends, and Brothers. Masonry teaches us
that while death is an inevitable part of our earthly journey, it is not the end of the light we
carry. The virtues we practice, the kindness we share, and the bonds of Brotherly Love endure beyond
the grave.
As the lodge doors close temporarily, may we not grow distant in spirit. Let this season be one of rest,
renewal, and gratitude. May we return from darkness refreshed in purpose, strengthened in fellowship,
and hopeful for the work that still lies before us.
The summer sun still warms the stone,
Though some dear Brothers journeyed home.
Yet hope, like acacia after rain,
Reminds us we shall meet again.
May the Great Architect watch over each of you and your families until we meet again upon the level.
Fraternally,
Aaron Combe, WM
