Mainspring

We are continuing the program started by Bro. Gary King and serving dinner at the Main Spring House located at 55 N. Main Street Brockton. ( Corner of Main and Spring Streets ) We will be serving meals to the homeless on the 3rd Thursday of each month.

Small acts go a long way in fostering good will and volunteering is a great way to build stronger ties with your brother Masons and the community.

Volunteers enter at the side door on Spring Street between 3:00 and 3:30. Dinner is served from 4:30 until 5:50. Volunteers serve only. All the prep and cleanup is taken care of by other volunteers.

Thank you to all who continue to support this program. Please Contact R. W. Demetrios Sarantopolous if you can assist or would like more information.

VA Escort service

Thank you to all who continue to show your support!

We meet at the VA Chapel basement at 10:00 am for coffee and fellowship. Come and enjoy some shoptalk and get to know your brother Masons better while serving the community.

What better way to show the Vets our appreciation than to visit with them and bring them to church?

As Burt Tibbetts says, “Any Sunday you are welcome and needed.”

At 10:30 we go get the patients and bring them to Chapel. Approx. 11:45 after service, we return the patients to their wards.

Lodge of Instruction

The following page consists of Excerpts taken from "The Grand Lodge of Massachusetts 1783-1933" By: R.W Frederick W. Hamilton Grand Secretary 1915-1940 Revised by: R.W Earl W. Taylor Director of education 1943-1952 Grand Secretary 1954 6th Edition

Our Experience in and after WWI showed the need of much better instructed members than were being produced by other methods and a begining was made on building up a department of Education. The administration of M.W. Herbert W. Dean craeted a system of state wide Lodges of Instruction. This was pioneer work on the part of the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts." The Lodge of Instruction has been established to reinforce and encourage the practice of our Masonic tenets. It accomplishes this by providing education for candidates and provides information for officers, members and guests in a friendly and social atmosphere.
