Buckinghamshire's festive initiative to welcome new members into Freemasonry continued in earnest this week.
At Hall Barn Lodge in Marlow, the head of the lodge delivered a first-class ceremony of initiation for Bro. Octavian.
Bro. Michael received a warm welcome at Chenies Lodge in the beautiful setting of the lodge room at Beaconsfield. It is a stunning location to see, with its vaulted ceiling, spiral staircase at the entrance, and second level, which is decorated with banners and houses the ancient standard for the Hallstone Province of Buckinghamshire.
On the same evening, in Aylesbury, Pegasus Lodge delivered the gift of Freemasonry to their newly made brother in style. Bro. Richard said afterwards how appreciative he was of everyone's efforts to make his day so special.
Meanwhile, after performing a double-raising ceremony in the early hours, Slough Daylight Lodge initiated Bro. Malcolm. Bro. Gerrit, a fellow South African, finished the meeting by presenting Bro. Malcolm with his provincial welcome pack. Both ceremonies were so beautifully done that the whole meeting was able to be finished in under three hours without hurrying through the ceremonies. One observer remarked that it was some of the best ceremonial work he had ever seen and that it was amazing to see younger Masons carrying out parts of the ceremony that were previously reserved for more senior members.
The candidates and everyone in attendance enjoyed a memorable morning that they will remember for many years.
