- Untitled November 11, 2024Dear Brethren and Friends of Freemasonry, The very beginning of the month of November observes two of the most important acts and obligations of citizenry, which we as patriotic and country-loving Americans exemplify.

- Untitled October 3, 2024My Dear Brethren: As we are soon entering upon a most solemn holiday, Yom Kippur, we are reminded once again that tragedies do not take a holiday.

This Region was hit by Hurricane Helene with multiple […]Ken Stuczynski

As Masons, we strive for this ideal, even knowing that it may be an elusive goal. Excellence is not a destination but a journey—an ongoing effort to reach and surpass our own standards. Many Lodges have found success on this journey, while […]Ken Stuczynski
- On Politics and Religion on Social Media August 12, 2024My Dear Brethren: One of the basic attributes that differentiates our beloved Masonic Fraternity from most other civic and social organizations is our singular code of behavior that enhances the promotion of harmony and brotherhood amongst our membership by strictly precluding debate and discourse on politics and religion within the walls of the Masonic Lodge.

- Message on Masonic Charity July 9, 2024My Brothers: Charity and Relief are at the heart of our Masonic obligations and order. We are charged not only to practice this in our Lodges, but also in our individual actions. It has been commonly stated that Freemasons in the United States provide $2 million to charity — every day. In New York, this […]Ken Stuczynski
