Master’s Letter | July 2011
Greetings to all Brethren and Friends!
Greetings from the island of St. John, of the U.S. Virgin Islands! I am currently traveling for my brother’s wedding – and found myself in this amazing place, at exactly the right time.
As all Brothers have learned, Masonry has long held a strong connection to 
our patron saints - St. John the Baptist and St. John the Evangelist. Over the centuries, there have been celebrations surrounding each of these days that memorialize these two saints – one who represents zeal, and the other - knowledge. It is also a time for us to come together to remember our past and to plan for the future.
It just so happens that June 24 is Saint John the Baptist Day – and incredibly, I find myself in St. John. To make this day all the more interesting - I discovered that my godfather is also my Brother. Incredible indeed that a lifelong spiritual connection grows even stronger on the day of St. John the Baptist.
Brothers, look for Masonry wherever you may 
be. Whether you search close to where you live, or in lands far away. Whether you search within your own being, or look to those around you - you will surely find it in the most amazing and unexpected places.
Please remember that we will be having both a regular communication and a special communication in the month of July. There will be an afterglow presentation consisting of very interesting Masonic research that our Senior Warden, Bro. Clinton Bartholomew, recently presented at the Mormon History Association.
Finally, please save the date for our Ann Arbor Tri-Lodge picnic, happening on Sunday, August 28th at Gallup Park. More details will be coming from your Lodges about this great event.
From our Lodge to you and your families, we wish you the very best of health and happiness.
Warmest fraternal regards,
Brian Cors
Worshipful Master
