A Message from the Grand Master

Brothers, behold how swiftly the sands of time pass. To say that serving as your Grand Master is a whirl wind is an understatement, but I wouldn’t trade it for the world. I cannot express all of the positive events that I have heard about and been able to be a part of throughout our jurisdiction. You, the Brethren of the Grand Lodge of Ohio, are engaged, enthused, and demonstrating Freemasonry in a great light; living the Principles of Brotherly Love, Relief and Truth. I would like to thank all the Brethren, ladies and guests that attended the Grand Master’s luncheons in Florida. What a great time we had presenting Service Awards to our deserving Brothers and catching up with friends while sharing stories of days past. Our Ohio Masonic Home family also presented information on all of the exciting and upcoming projects and services available. This is the time when I encourage you all to attend your lodge functions. Inspection season is in full bloom and there is always an event in which to participate. Enjoy the fellowship and spread the light of Freemasonry. Brothers, you make a difference. We, as Grand Lodge Officers, can only provide tools and incentives to assist and encourage you. It is up to you to pick up the tools and build. We have all heard the old adage that you can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make him drink. Brothers, for the success of any of our Lodges, it is up to you to make the difference, to provide the leadership, the fellowship, and the motivation for accomplishment - no matter how big or how small. Soon winter’s grasp will slowly give way to a new season. The sound of the spring peepers will fill the night, and the tender leaves of spring will be here. Brothers, I wish you all safe travels and great successes on your journey. May God bless you and your families. Fraternally and sincerely, Robert C. Rill, Jr. Grand Master
