Liberty Lodge raises three new members  (L-R) R.W. Bro. James "Chico" Mathis, Bro. Thomas Frady, Bro. Monty Beacham, Bro. Chris Dawkins, W. Bro. Steve Chastain and W. Bro. Lamar Porter.  On Friday, May 21st , at 7:30 P.M.  Brothers from 3 districts and 11 different lodges came together at Liberty Lodge to assist in conferring a 3rd degree; on three worthy brothers. W. Brother Lamar Porter lead the excellent work ; from beginning to the end. Many of the brothers, in attendance; asked to participate in this degree and W. Bro. Steve Chastain (Sitting Master) obliged each of them. It was wonderful to see the great attendance and involvement of our craft. Brothers Frady, Beecham and Dawkins were brought forth and raised to the sublime degree of a master mason. What a CATCH it was ; for Liberty Lodge to be able to add these New Brothers to the role. Brotherly love and affection prevailed and masonry is strong and well in The 16th Masonic District. Congratulations to our newly made Brothers and we look forward to seeing them in our travels.
