Greetings Masonic Family and Friends!

Well, hello there, welcome back, and happy New Year!  We hope all of you had a very Merry Christmas and your coming New Year will be filled with safe travels, good health, and many wonderful blessings!

The lovely ladies of Bethel #49 would once again like to express their sincere gratitude for everyone who helped with our annual fruit basket sales!  Whether you purchased a fruit basket, spread the word about the sale, or just made a donation, the girls really appreciated it!  A special giant THANK YOU goes out to Norma Brink of our Bethel and Bob Cavender of Old Erie Lodge!  Norma, once again, spearheaded this project and made sure everything ran smoothly!  This labor of love guaranteed another successful and worry-free fundraiser for us!  High five to Bob as well who worked tirelessly all day to help pull the 95 baskets together and make this another successful fundraiser for the girls!

Speaking of successful and fun-filled events, did you happen to attend our joint Official Visitation with Bethel #66?  Well, if you didn’t, here is the main highlight….drumroll please…  Please help us welcome Bethel #49’s newest member, Ariana C., to our organization!  See?  As we keep saying, it’s never too late to introduce that special young lady to Job’s Daughters!  Welcome Ariana and may you make lasting friendships, go on many amazing adventures, and learn countless valuable lessons during your time as a member in our incredible organization!
