Brethren of Liberty Lodge # 48 A.F. & A.M.,

I would like to thank all of you in advance for the hard work and dedication you

have given in the past years and earnestly ask for your continued support during

the upcoming year. Without you the Worshipful Master could never begin to

accomplish the most important task of keeping our lodge thriving with new

candidates and new projects. Everyone’s participation is greatly appreciated

whether it is taking care of our “Home”, teaching new masons their work, helping

with fund raisers or just being in attendance at our meetings. It takes each and

every one of us to maintain the “Temple”. I realize every job is not always going to

be noticed, but we as masons do not always work for recognition. Many times we

just do the things we do because we love our fraternity and more especially our

brother masons.

I am looking forward to my term as Worshipful Master. I am humbled by the

support and confidence the Brethren have showed me. I plan to continue to strive

for the Vanguard Award as previous Worshipful Masters and most recently Past

Master Kemp Newman have done. I appreciate their efforts on paving the way

and keeping our lodge recognized as a superior lodge and the Premier Small Lodge

in Texas.

We will also continue our many services to the community through awards,

scholarships, and numerous other community projects. I plan to do this, with the

support of the Brethren, by continuing the Smoke Turkey fundraiser and growing

our Sporting Clays Benefit. I believe these activities are critical in supporting our

community, growth of the lodge through notoriety and the upkeep of our lodge.

In conclusion, I humbly solicit the help, support and ideas from all the members of

Liberty Lodge. Without the “Mortar” made of hard work and dedication the

building blocks of our fraternity would surely crumble.

Sincerely & Fraternally,

Justin Hamilton

Worshipful Master 2012-2013

This committee performs a very sad, but a very necessary duty. They are called upon to

perform Masonic Graveside Services for our deceased Brethren. The committee shall:

1. Compile a list of Brethren who might be available to attend Masonic funerals.

2. Appoint Brethren who have the time and interest to serve as a telephone committee to

increase attendance at funerals. The Telephone Committee will assist here.

3. Remember, this committee puts the Lodge on display before the public at a very solemn

and stressful time and our reputation as a Fraternity and a Lodge depends on our conduct

at these funerals. Those Brethren attending funerals should be thoroughly instructed

about the conduct of Masonic funerals and their part in them.

This committee is very important because it is responsible for all the degree work. The

results of the work of this committee cannot be determined on the night of the degree; it is

after the degree that we can see the results of the committee's labors. This committee has no

chairman and will work closely with the Ritual Instruction Committee to ensure that the

Ritual is learned and presented in the manner it deserves. Each member of the committee,

however, does have a specific duty and they are as follows:

1. The Junior Warden, shall be responsible for the Entered Apprentice degree. He shall

secure a team and make sure a competent Brother is in attendance to deliver the lecture.

Except when otherwise directed by the Worshipful Master, he shall close the Entered

Apprentice Lodge.

2. The Senior Warden shall be responsible for the Fellow craft degree and the same

procedure followed as that above.

3. The Worshipful Master shall be responsible for the Master Mason degree and the same

procedure followed as that above.

4. The Senior Deacon shall be responsible for the proper preparation of each candidate. He

should take nothing for granted, and in his absence he should appoint a Brother to

this duty for him. No candidate should be stopped during the ceremony for adjustments

in his preparation. THE MASTER OF CRERMONIES WILL ASSIST, BUT THE

SENIOR DEACON IS SOLELY RESPONSIBLE.

This committee is probably the backbone of the Lodge because of its charge; to instruct and

educate the candidates in the rituals and customs of Freemasonry and to instruct the

members in their presentation of the rituals. This committee will be dealing with the future

leadership of the Lodge and it is important to recognize future leaders early and encourage

their studies. The Lodge will surely suffer if the committee fails to live up to its duties. The

committee will be busy and will require assistance. Volunteer to assist in instructions and

attend the training sessions to improve your own skills. The committee's duties are:

13

A. CONCERNING CANDIDATES

1. Make yourself personally acquainted with each candidate.

Each Entered Apprentice should be contacted prior to the night of his initiation and our

system of instruction, the payment of fees and dues, and his rights and privileges as an

E. A. explained to him.

2. Under no circumstances should a candidate appear for instruction and find no one

available to instruct him. This is inexcusable. If, in the event instructors cannot attend to

perform their duties, they should contact the candidate/pupil. A simple, courteous

telephone call could well be the difference between an interested candidate and a poor

prospect for our Lodge. We cannot take any chances by being careless and we owe it to

the pupil.

3. The chairman of this committee is responsible for accurate instruction at all times. The

Grand Laws provide a District Instructor and he may be called on to assist. A Brother

well-versed in Masonry should be assigned to work with the candidate until he has taken

his Master's proficiency.

4. The chairman shall have a personal knowledge of a Brother's proficiency before he is

examined in any degree. Poor examinations from poorly prepared candidates are a

disservice to the candidate, to the Lodge, and to Masonry.

5. It shall be the duty of the committee to instruct each newly raised Master Mason in

Lodge procedures: courtesy, customs, and laws. New Master Masons should be

instructed to study our By-Laws and the Grand Laws; they should be taught voting

procedures; parliamentary procedure as it works in Masonic Lodges; and what Lodge

officers do and why.

B. CONCERNING RITUAL INSTRUCTIONS

1. The committee will set aside a regular night for study and instruction. This can continue

to be our off-Thursday nights, or any evening convenient to the majority of the

committee.

2. This committee will assist the Degree Work Committee in assembling Degree Teams

and see that the team is prepared in the ritual.

3. The committee will also assist the Lodge Officers in learning the rituals properly.

This committee works with the Lodge's officers and future officers. A Lodge is no better

than its officers and it is necessary that we set standards for our officers and demand

that they rise to them. Under a Grand Master's Edict of 1989, all officers-elect are to be

proficient in opening and closing all Lodges, as well as be competent in Lodge

administration by 1992. The development of this program is one that should be top

priority each year. The goals of this committee are:

1. To develop and prepare a training program based on material issued by Grand Lodge,

e.g. L. I. F. E. and A.L.L.

2. To regularly schedule meetings for presenting the program to all Lodge officers and

interested members.

3. To involve all members that show an interest in the program and prepare them to

assume future leadership roles.

4. To invite and encourage neighboring Lodges to participate in the program.

It is the duty of this committee to examine all claims for assistance, visit the sick and

determine their needs, and settle all differences between Brethren. A majority of this

Fraternity, and it is responsible to the Lodge at all times.

This committee is responsible for administering the Lodge's Endowed Membership Program.

An Endowed Membership costs $500.00 and may be purchased on the installment plan. Once

an Endowed Membership is issued, the recipient no longer is required to pay annual dues,

and the Lodge will receive the benefits of the membership in perpetuity. The committee will

solicit membership; account for monies in the fund; issue the proper certification to the

Grand Secretary on the type of membership; in memory, in honor, or by the member,

himself; see that the program is in compliance with Article 318A at all times.

Branch Awards for Teaching Excellence and the Liberty Masonic Lodge Memorial

Scholarship presented to a graduating Senior from Liberty High School and Hardin High

School. This committee's responsibilities include:

1. Communicating with school officials to assure that the names of the recipients of the

Branch Awards and the Liberty Masonic Lodge Memorial Scholarship Award are made

available to the Chairman in time to have the plaques and/or checks prepared.

2. That the winner's names are inscribed on the appropriate plaque or check.

3. That the Branch Awards Dinner is coordinated with the Master's calendar and set for the

first stated meeting in March during the period of Public School week.

16

That the Scholarship winner(s) receives his/her Scholarship Documents during the Senior

Awards Ceremonies at Liberty and Hardin High School.

5. That the Scholarship Fund be administered in a sound accounting method.

6. That both programs be adequately publicized in local news papers and radio stations.

This committee will determine, after meeting with the Budget and Finance and Building and

Grounds committee, whether there are any potential budget shortfalls and whether there are

any potential problems which may arise after the budget process is completed. If such

problems are found, the committee will devise a program and/or fund raising event, with

complete cost analysis and net proceeds projected, for action by the lodge. This committee

with communicate with other lodges and explore fresh avenues for generating additional

revenue for the lodge. In addition the committee will gladly receive suggestions for

consideration.

Liberty Lodge has a proud and time-honored history of accomplishment in the community

and this fact can be used as a departure point for many worthwhile projects and programs.

We've recently seen how valuable our past has been in promoting the present through the

Branch Awards and the Historical Marker Dedications. We can extend this further. This

committee's goals are:

1. To locate the grave site of all Charter Members and see that they are properly marked.

2. Investigate the history of the Lodge through the Sam Houston Regional Library and the

Grand Lodge Library for a possible History of Liberty Lodge Pamphlet, for Lodge

programs, news articles, etc.

17

3. See that the gravesites of all deceased Brethren buried in Liberty County are marked and

maintained on an annual basis, if necessary.

4. Any other project which the committee feels is viable and the Lodge approves.

she is encouraged to attend. And if special accommodations such as travel is requested

that it be provided.

3. Notify the Worshipful Master of any Widow who does not have a Widow's Pen so that he

might present her with one at the next annual dinner.

4. See that each Widow receives a monthly telephone call from a member of the Lodge.

5. See that each Widow receives an annual birthday card and telephone greeting.

6. Determine any special need(s) the Widow may have and how he Lodge may offer

assistance. 18
