Lowther Manor Lodge Serves Our Community
Highway Litter Pickup - PA Adopt-A-Highway
Our first pickup of 2025 went well. We picked up 35 bags of litter from a two mile section of our route 15 assigned roadside. More importantly, we had the opportunity to provide masonic assistance to little old lady (and her dog) from New Jersey who was passing through and had a flat tire.
All able bodies brethren are encouraged to help out. Friends and family members are welcome to join in this public service project!
Our Progress to Date
Brethren,
Our next session will be on Tuesday, May 20th, at 7:00 PM, at the Nauvoo Road Lodge Building. Attire is casual. We will discuss the Lodge's strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT) and hot these affect our objectives.
-
We know we face some unique geographic and demographic challenges as our lodge is not located in the center of a heavily populated area. Instead, the communities our members reside in form a ring around the lodge.
-
While we can host activities at the lodge to draw the community in, it is more important and productive for us to get involved in our surrounding communities' institutions and civic events.
-
Based on some core objectives, we are reevaluating how our current activities, public service projects, charitable contributions, etc. serve to achieve those objectives and if they best utilize our resources.
-
We have been encouraged to "think big." We should be looking for activities that yield big results with the least resource costs which will allow us to accomplish more outreach.
Our Newest Master Mason
Bro. Eugene N. Garcia
It was a great evening of degree work as the 3rd, or Master Mason’s degree was conferred upon our latest member, Eugene (Gene) Nicholas Garcia (Front, 3rd from left.) The degree was conferred by Bro. Todd L. Snyder, PM and the ancient charge at raising was delivered by Dale M. Hauze, Sr., PM. It was a record cold and icy night but all who turned out enjoyed the warm fellowship of the lodge as we welcomed Gene to a lifetime journey through the whole experience of Freemasonry. Please join us in congratulating him!
