Although the majority of our Brethren have taken care of this deed there are

unfortunately always a few who need that Brotherly nudge.  If you have not yet contacted our Secretary won’t you address this issue at this time.

compasNews from Rising Sun #39, F&AM

From the East

 

As can be well attested to by many, the month of May was a very busy yet exciting time.  Not only did we have our normal Masonic duties, but we had the pleasure of enjoying Grand Lodge in Manchester with well over 250 Brothers in attendance.  Also 5 days later the festivities of our Veteran’s Night came about with the assistance of our wonderful Rainbow Girls and the attendance of our M.W.G.M. C. Wayne Libby, Jr. 

 

On May 16th, Rising Sun’s own Past Master C.Wayne Libby, Jr. was installed as our Most Worshipful Grand Master for the State of New Hampshire for 2009 -2010.  In addition, R.W. Larry D. Gullett PM of Rising Sun #39 was installed as the 2nd Masonic District Grand Master for 2009 – 2010.  Please join with me in remembering these Brothers in all our invocations to Diety as they lead us in our Masonic duties.

 

On Thursday, May 21st we gave honor to our Veteran Brothers who have achieved various milestones in their Masonic Travels.  The following is a breakdown of those Brothers:
