Field Trip to Visit Ancient Landmark Lodge #5

Thursday, June 8th, 6023 A.·.L.·.

This evening's event will be to exercise that Ancient Masonic Privilege of Visiting Another Lodge, in this case Ancient Landmark Lodge #5.  The Worshipful Master of Ancient Landmark Lodge #5 (AL5) has extended an invitation to the Master, Wardens, and Brethren of Saint Paul Lodge Number Three to visit during their Stated Communication.  It will be a special evening because AL5 will be hosting the Most Worshipful Grand Master of Masons in Minnesota, Most Worshipful Brother Dayton Berg, and it is likely we'll get to witness the rare event of a Lodge extending Grand Honors to the Grand Master. 

While visitation is a normally a privilege extended only to Master Masons, AL5 has offered to open on the 1st Degree should any of our Entered Apprentices or Fellowcrafts wish to visit.

WB Carl Andersen, Master of Saint Paul Lodge Number Three, has requested that all Entered Apprentices and Fellowcrafts attend this event.

Of course all Master Masons are encouraged to attend as well.

AL5 meets at the Masonic Center at 200 Plato Boulevard in Saint Paul.  The meal begins at 6:00pm and the Lodge opens at 7:00pm.  Please arrive at 5:45, or as soon after as possible, to allow time for introductions and prove ups.

There is a nominal cost of the meal, payable at the event.

Please register as soon as possible so that we can provide a list to AL5 to assist with their planning for the mean.

Please register on the Saint Paul Lodge Number Three website.  

If you have any problems or questions logging on please email the lodge Secretary at secretary@saintpaullodge.org.

Warm Fraternal Regards,

"Love Our House" Night
at
Triune Temple

Dedicated to Brother Bill Kepler

Tuesday June 27th, 6023 A.·.L.·.

Brothers and Friends,

The "Love our House" nights, caring for our beloved Triune Temple, will continue on most 4th Tuesdays throughout 2023. 

Some of the tasks we will address at this event are leveling the blocks on the sidewalk near the front door, window repair and painting, and cleanup of construction debris on the West and North sides of the building.

We each hold our own affinities for Triune Temple, whether it's historical, memorial, or that we just love cool old Architecture. 

If that's not enough reason to pitch in, it's important to note that, of all the Masonic Temples built in the same era as ours within the city limits of Minneapolis and Saint Paul, there remains just one still under Masonic ownership:

Our own Triune Masonic Temple!

Let us deepen our resolve to preserve this treasure for our posterity, and for our posterity's posterity!

Brother Christopher Robinson, Senior Warden, will continue to quarterback these efforts and coordinating with the WB Secretary and myself.

This night is dedicated to our late Brother Bill Kepler.  For those of you who don't know Brother Bill, he had a deep love for our Lodge, our Ritual, and for Triune Temple itself.  The picture in the Library of the bearded man holding a roast turkey, is Brother Bill.  He was a long-time member of the Living History Society and it was during a conversation he and I had at one of the "cleanup nights," sitting on the retaining wall in front of the Temple, I asked him something that triggered his petition to our Lodge and his becoming a Mason.

And we were truly blessed to have him.  He gave of himself generously to the Lodge and especially to the Temple.  I miss him.

So let's get together, give our House the love it deserves, and get to know each other a little better.

Traditional "cleanup night" dinner (Turkey) will be continue to be my pleasure on this special day.  Please register as soon as you can.
