Grand Master DlugeBrethren:

We're in the midst of Summer. Vacations and time off are the order of the day. Your Grand Lodge, however, continues to work actively on your behalf.

Construction continues at our Masonic Homes in Elizabethtown and at Sewickley. Don't miss Autumn Day Sept. 23 in Elizabethtown. We hope you will be there to participate and enjoy the festivities as well as see the progress being made on construction there.

Your Grand Lodge officers continue to travel to most major continents of the world to spread far and wide the message of Pennsylvania Freemasonry, develop relationships that transcend national boundaries and ethnic or religious backgrounds, and truly show why Freemasonry is the world's premier fraternal organization.

We continue to participate in the Masonic Alliance of North America and, once established, to voluntarily help Masons deal with problems common to all Grand Lodges and their memberships.

The AED (automatic external defibrillators) Program has far exceeded our wildest imagination. Lodges are making the placement of hundreds of AED units possible statewide through active programs to raise the funds necessary for the purpose.

Masonic Education continues to secure superior speakers for the Pennsylvania Masonic Academy of Freemasonry. The second session will take place in October, which we hope you will attend. We are, my Brethren, trying to fulfill the misson you have charged us with -- to enter a new millennium with vigor and foresight to ensure the perpetuation of our Fraternity. This can be done only with your active participation as well.

Become involved! See what Freemasonry is. See what it can do and how your lodge can grow by your attendance.

Sincerely and fraternally,

Robert L. Dluge, Jr.,
R.W. Grand Master
