ProvGM & GSupt Oxfordshire

Published in the Times almost exactly 80 years ago (July 20th 1939). Part of a longer article covering the Installation of the Duke of Kent as GM by his elder brother King George VI (PGM).

@monmasons Sorry I can't be there... Congratulations to your new ProvGM & GSupt!

The day is finally here. The #installation of our new Provincial Grand Master and Grand Superintendent Christopher R. Evans, #GoodLuck to all those involved. #friendship #service #respect #integrity

Supporting @_HFAF_ last night at the anniversary dinner for Cotswold Lodge. A pleasure to welcome their Grand Master to Oxfordshire.

@OxonFreemasons The new team are now ready to go as we build up to celebrating 300yrs of Freemasonry in Oxfordshire in 5 years time. We will demonstrate what we do best - caring for our communities and those in need directly around us, and by showing how much fun we can have in the process.

A very busy week with two Provincial investiture meetings for both Craft and Royal Arch. Congratulations to all who received first appointments and promotions. #freemasons #Oxfordshire

On #DDay80, we remember the courageous young men who stormed the beaches and made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom🇬🇧 Their bravery will never be forgotten 🫡🌹 One such hero was Harry Billinge MBE, who shared his story with FMT⏬ 🔗ugle.org.uk/discover-freem… #Freemasons

Attended one of my own Royal Arch Chapters this evening and was reminded why I love the Royal Arch so much. Superb quality ritual with no unnecessary fuss or faffing around. Home in good time as a result. #companionship #RoyalArch #CompletetheJourney

@GlosPGLodge @WBroMarkSmith Congratulations from @OxonFreemasons. It was a pleasure to be there and support the new team.

A Special Meeting of Provincial Grand Lodge dlvr.it/T7NyxX

Three Provincial Grand Masters for Oxfordshire. Delighted to be able to be present last night when James Hilditch (2014-2024) presented a long overdue 60th certificate to Geoffrey Redman-Brown (1985-2001)

Oxfordshire gets a second additional APGM to help deliver the strategy. Congratulations to Bernie Wegerhoff who will join the team. To support our development as One Organisation we will also be combining key administrative roles in the Craft/RA

Phase I begins….

New Provincial Grand Master Appointed For Bedfordshire bedfordshirefreemasons.org/new-provincial… #UGLE #Freemasons #BedfordshireFreemasonry #Bedfordshire

@thecraftbloke I was 1 of 4 and it was a very special experience. What matters is how new members are treated afterwards. 'Singles' have only become 'the norm' since the number of candidates has slowed - go back 100+ years and almost every lodge was doing it. We need to rediscover lost habits.

Poll Time! Brethren: what is your opinion on multiple (simultaneous) initiations? Please share this post for a bigger sample.

@WestLancsPGL Congratulations. Peter’s (continuing) contributions to the Royal Arch should not be underestimated. Thank you for your service 🥂

Pro Grand Master's address - Quarterly Communication of Grand Lodge - December 2023| UGLE ugle.org.uk/discover-freem…

Many of its early members were Freemasons who shared its values of Enlightenment Philosophy. Including John Theophilus Desaguliers, assistant to Isaac Newton, who helped author the 1723 Constitutions and served as one of the first Grand Masters.
