The Rite Times 11/11/2016

A Day For Our Veterans

 

The Valley of Boston, and freemasonry in general, has many courageous brethren who put their lives on the line for our great country. Today is a day to honor them for their brave service. The Veterans Day holiday goes back almost 100 years, to 1918 when it was known as Armistice Day. The holiday was originally meant to honor Veterans of World War I, but in 1954 President Dwight Eisenhower issued a proclamation for all citizens to observe November 11, as Veterans Day. 

 

The Feast of St. Andrew

 

The Knights of St. Andrew will be holding their annual Feast of St. Andrew on December 10, 2016, and they are inviting all knights and interested applicants. The Feast will be held at the Needham Masonic Building at 1101 Highland Ave. Needham, MA. Festivities will kick off at 4:00PM with the induction of the newest Knights followed by a social period and dinner. If you are interested in joining the KSA or attending the event please RSVP to the Venerable Master at VM@massksa.org by December 3, 2016.​​

 

Congratulations to Our Newest MSA's!

 

The Grand Master’s Class was home to several memorable events. Whether our newest brethren were receiving their Consistory jewels or our Most Worshipful Grand Master was receiving the commemorative jewel with his name on it, good times filled the One Day Class. However, the Valley would like to highlight the two newest recipients of the Valley of Boston Meritorious Service Award. Brothers Ethan Gilson, 32° MSA, and David Lucas, 32° MSA!
