WM Carmen F.
DeAngelis, PM
invites you to
come to a Stated Meeting of the Lodge. Support your favorite
Charity by participating in his “Charity of the Month”
program! Call or e-mail us for reservations to join us for dinner
before the Meeting.
A
note to visitors to our Lodge from the Officers and Members :
Chandler Lodge No. 227 is proud to support our DDGM in continuing
the Pennsylvania tradition of requiring "Masonic Dress"
at our Stated and Extra meetings. Masonic dress is coat and tie,
but more than that it signifies a proper state of mind when
entering the Lodge, being dressed Masonically means to be ready
to leave the outside world of concerns to dwell in peace among
your Bretheren.

Masonic
Thoughts
From Carmen
F. DeAngelis, PM., to the Brethren of Chandler Lodge No. 227
To my
Fraternal Brothers of Chandler Lodge No.227:
The
following statements and comments were made at the Stated meeting
in January 4, 1994. I was the Worshipful Master of the lodge.
It’s meaning is appropriate now as it was then. (A
statement made by a Worshipful Master of the Lodge of England)
“ The
office belongs to Freemasonry. I am only too well aware that it
is not my personal possession. I shall not presume to undertake
to revise or reform it to suit my private personality; whatever
idiosyncrasies of matter or peculiarities of character I may
have, you will expect me to set aside. The man is not the Jewel
for which the office is a setting. I shall not seek to make the
office conform to me, I shall try to conform myself to it. I am
about to take my station again in the “East”. Now as
then while traveling in the Chairs when entering the Lodge I
still find myself looking to the “East” at the
“CHAIR”. It’s presence and serene silence is
even more prevalent today as it was then. I am only passing
through, the History and ever present echoing voices still very
much humble this man. I will continue to do my very best to honor
our tradition and more especially those who have traveled before
me.”
It is
a privilege and personal honor to be affiliated with the Officers
of Chandler Lodge No. 227. Their dedication to our Lodge and it’s
members is Stellar (i.e.; star performer, excellent) in my
opinion they are among the best in Freemasonry.
Worshipful
Master 2012 Carmen F. DeAngelis, P.M. 1994
