Companions:

We have had an exciting month. We received several new Companions this month and we put them to work during our March Chapter meeting. Once again, our thanks go out to those Brothers from Orlando, Sanford, Eustis and Brevard County who came and participated.

Remember, we are planning on putting on a One-Day Class in September.

We are planning on attending the State Convention in April and will report on it.

I want to close my article by making an obserevation. We all know that our Nation is undergoing financial troubles. I am sure we all know people and families who are having hard times. We also know that Masons stand for Charity.

How many of us have helped someone? I mean putting gas in a car, helping others buy groceries or helping pay a bill? Do you give a Companion a ride? Do you help older people?

Hard times do not last. We exert energy to let the world know how great Masons are, and we hope good men will join us. Our Brother Benjamin Franklin observed that "Actions speak louder than words".

Will there be people who will tell about the Masons who helped them in their time of need? I trust there will.
