Let us support our Lodge, attend our communications and Degree work, participate in Lodge visitations , and extend our hands of fellowship to every Brother. A strong Lodge is built not by one brother alone, but by Brethren working together in harmony.

Let us remain faithful to our Masonic Obligations, conduct ourselves with dignity and respect, and continue our journey " Unity and Cooperation is the key of success towards Lodge harmony.

May the Great Architect of The Universe guide us and bless our Lodge, our Officers, our Brethren and Families.

Type your November Message Brethren,

As we enter October, let us renew our commitment to the fellowship and shared work that strengthen our lodge. Each meeting offers an opportunity to learn, support one another, and put the principles of Brotherly Love, Relief, and Truth into practice. Your presence and participation help make that work meaningful.

Please watch for messages regarding our upcoming lodge visitations. Visiting our neighboring lodges is a wonderful way to strengthen fraternal bonds, meet other Brethren, and experience the fellowship that extends beyond our own lodge. I encourage you to join us as your schedule allows and represent King Solomon Lodge with pride.

Let us also remain mindful of our Brethren and their families who may need encouragement or assistance. A phone call, a visit, or a simple act of kindness can make a lasting difference.

I look forward to seeing you in lodge and sharing in the work and fellowship ahead.

Brethren,

First, I want to greet all our Brothers celebrating their birthdays this October. Happy birthday Brothers! Wishing you all good health, happiness, and many more blessings in the year ahead. I hope you get to enjoy your special day with your family, friends, and Brothers.

It’s hard to believe that we are already entering the last quarter of the year. The year went by pretty fast, and October is a good reminder that we only have a few months left to finish what we started and make the most of the rest of 2026.

For me, this is also a good time to look back at everything we’ve done together as a Lodge, the meetings, degrees, events, fellowship, and all the time everyone has given throughout the year. Not everything will always go perfectly, but what matters is that we continue to support each other, learn from each experience, and keep moving forward together.

As we go through these last few months, I hope we can continue to show up for one another, especially for our newer Brothers, and keep the brotherhood and harmony strong within the Lodge. Sometimes it’s the simple things, checking on a Brother, helping during an event, attending a degree or just spending time together, that make the biggest difference.

Let’s enjoy the rest of the year, continue building good memories together, and finish 2026 strong as a Lodge.

Wishing everyone a great month of October.

Brethren, Good Day Everyone.. First, the Good News. I am happy to report that King Solomon Lodge No. 58 has maintained the number of members despite losing few brother to Non-Payment of Dues. Kudos to the hard working brothers. Let’s maintain this feat or even surpass next year. Now for the bad news: The issue I want to touch is the other duty of the Secretary, i.e., Chairman of Delinquency Committee. I want to be blunt here as the Annual Dues of the Members are the main life blood of the lodge in order to operate like a well-oiled machine. If a member does not pay their Dues, the lodge has to pay the Grand Lodge the per Capita just to carry the member for another year. This is putting a strain on the finances of the lodge, albeit the lodge is not struggling financially but if this situation persist, the lodge will soon be in peril. Every applicant for membership of a lodge cannot escape the tough question from the Investigating Team. The question is: Is the Applicant financially able to afford the entrance fee and the payment of the annual dues without hardship to himself or family. Brethren, the foremost duty of a member is to honor the commitments and principles undertaken upon becoming a Mason. Protecting the reputation and well-being of his lodge is paramount. This year, 18 % of brothers still have NOT paid their 2026 Annual Dues. This number is quite high as it is already almost the end of the 2026 Masonic calendar. Let’s keep our obligation fulfilled so that our lodge can continue to provide valuable support to it activities and charity giving. Fraternally, Mike D. Marave, PM Secretary
