FROM YOUR LODGE SECRETARY
Brethren,
Since the beginning of the year, we have started off with a bang. We have 4 new EAs, we have
sponsored a Little League Ball Team, we have started pursuing a new De Molay chapter at Holy-
rood Lodge and we are planning a Family Night on Thursday, March 30th. We will be treated
with homemade Lasagna by Brother Paul Ippolito. These are some ambitious projects and fortu-
nately, we have some brothers who have taken on these tasks and moving forward. However,
they could use some help from the rest of the brothers of the lodge. If you have an interest in
joining in any of these projects or if you have some ideas for other projects for the Lodge, let
me know by either email at [email protected] or leave me a voice mail at 813-888-
6385.
Fraternally,
Joseph Tarica, PM
Secretary

NOTICES PLEASE:
NOTIFY
Holyrood Lodge at
813-888-6385 -
and the Scottish
Rite, York Rite,
the Shrine, and
other Masonic
Bodies… tell your loved ones; your
wife, daughter, son or any close
relative of your affiliation within
the Masonic Fraternity. Yes my
Brother, in the event of your death,
tell them to notify the Secretary of
all Masonic Bodies in which you
hold membership. There are a
number of cases each year in which
we are not notified of the passing of
a Brother, and we send an
embarrassing dues notice to his
loved ones. As your Chaplain, it is
important to reach out to all of our
Brothers and their families in need
of prayers, thoughts, and visitations.
To do this I need your help! I
would like to set aside one day a
month just for visitations. I cannot
do this without your help. When
you hear of anyone distressed, sick,
or shut in - please call or email me
so that we can be of service.
