This evening we had a committee meeting for Wrexhamian Lodge.
This committee meeting was to decide the people that we elected last Friday (I know it makes no sense). And to sort out the Officer list for the upcoming year.
The first hour was taken up by discussing committee meetings, and other random things before we finally got onto officers for the year. And That is where it went a bit wrong.
Our current DC who has only attended the odd random meeting over the last two years has stated that he is too busy to continue so is stepping down (Which makes sense since he can never attend) but he would like to be the Chaplin (which does not make sense as he can never attend). The Master Mason who did his third at the start of the year stated he would not take any role below SD, so our IG is now moving straight to JW so the Steward can go SD.
And that’s when it started getting silly. I do not have high hopes for Wrexhamian Lodge.

Freemasonry (Craft)
One of the oldest social and charitable organisations in the world, Freemasonry's roots lie in the traditions of the medieval stonemasons who built our cathedrals and castles.
It is here that a number of the famous elements of Freemasonry find their roots. In the medieval era, stonemasons often travelled around to find work in different locations. To demonstrate their level of qualification, they would use grips, words and signs in order to distinguish themselves from unqualified builders.
Freemasonry uses building analogies to teach members how to lead productive lives that benefit the communities that they live in. In the medieval era, stonemasons wore aprons and gloves to protect themselves while working on shaping rough pieces of stone, but in today’s society Freemasons meet to build friendships and communities rather than cathedrals and castles.
