Be still my soul!
The lord is on thy side; Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain; Leave to thy god to order and provide; I every change
he faithful will remain. Be still my soul! Thy best, thy heavenly friend. Thro’ throny ways leads to a joyful end.

Greetings
from the West!
I would like
to say that I hope that all is well with each and every brother and member of St. Alban's extended family. In addition,
I would also like to thank everyone for allowing me to advance from the junior to the Senior Warden. Moreover, as we
start off with a new administration, I hope that everyone is ready to work and be supportive of our lodge. Our lodge
is still in financial dire, I hope, fast, and pray that we can all come together so that we can overcome this situation in
the very near future. I also hope that each brother is doing well. Finally, as we attempt to focus on how St.
Alban #35 once flourished and return to those traditions, I hope to see a lot of brothers turn out on the fourth Friday and
shed light, wisdom, and guidance to your lodge brothers.

The Pillar of…BEAUTY
There are
six things the Lord hates;
Seven that
are detestable to him:
Haughty eyes,
a lying tongue,
Hands that
shed innocent blood,
A heart that
devises wicked schemes,
Feet that
are quick to rush into evil,
A false witness
who pours out lies and
A man who
stirs up dissension among brothers.
Proverbs 6:16-19
First giving praise to the All Knowing, All Powerful, and Ever-Present Supreme Architect,
I would like to thank the brothers for electing me to serve as Junior Warden for the next ensuing year. Prayerfully I will
be able to share some of the wisdom I have acquired in the twenty–one years I have been a part of this great Lodge.
I will strive for us to work together in harmony, which is a necessity to accomplish all tasks, which are before us. One of
my duties as Junior Warden is to superintend the craft during the hours of refreshment. I have informed the Master of my plan
to have us, as a lodge, to be more involved in the act of charity during that time. This does not mean us being more charitable
in a monetary sense. There are ways of being charitable which at times involve no monies at all. I will therefore, by direction
of the Worshipful Master bring to the body certain charitable endeavors for our full participation. This is just one plan
I hope will help to bring us back together as Men and Masons.
Fraternally Yours,
Terence R. Moody
Junior Warden
