On November 8th the Brothers of Haines City Lodge No. 219 and Travelers Lodge No. 390 makea trip to the Masonic Home of Florida in Saint Petersburg. The purpose of this trip was to deliver thirty-four Afghan lap blankets to the residents of the Masonic Home who are in wheelchairs. We were freated by a Brother and his wife, the looks on their faces were of both suprise and gratitude.
The Brothers who brothers who travelled to the Masonic with me include W:. Tom Leach Past Master of Haines City and current Chaplain, Bro. Adam Peraset, Junior Warden at Haines City, W:. John Donovan, Past Master Travelers Lodge, W: Ralph Jones and the ladies from the Lakeland Chapter of the Order of Eastern Star.
When this project was just an idea in my mind. I set a goal of 15 Afghans to be taken to the Masonic Home. Well thanks to the hard work we exceeded that goal. Next goal is to make sure everyone of the 80 residents at the Masonic Home has his or her own afghan. Thank you all who had a hand in making this idea a reality.
Fraternally,
W:. Paul Wilson, Secretary and Past Master of Haines City Lodge No. 219
