Welcome to the Peterborough District Masonic Assocation
As we proceed through our Masonic careers, we encounter many different challenges as well as many rewards. It was my privilege to attend the interim meeting for Grand Lodge in Hamilton on January 14, 2012.
This meeting is held every year to get an update on what is happening in the jurisdiction. At this meeting, the DDGMs are required to present a short report on the condition of Masonry in their Districts.
As I was listening to the reports of each DDGM, it became quite apparent that Peterborough District is no different than any other District in Ontario. The reports centred on the positive aspects as well the challenges that have been faced by each District. There were reports that included the CHIP program, Masonic Education, The Friend to Friend Program and the Cornerstone Program.
With each report, I could tell that there were much positive activities happening in the jurisdiction. It is because of Brethren like you that these programs work and make a difference in the District. As each District is unique, so is every Lodge.
Remember Grand Lodge is there to assist when needed. Please contact the District Secretary or myself so that we can direct or aid your Lodge in any way possible.
Sincerely and Fraternally,
Robert A. Ducharme
District Deputy Grand Master
