The Room was ready
The Bothers gathered
Greetings and friendly handshakes.
Pictures taken - The gavel sounded and the first stated meeting of Specialis Procer Lodge U.D. was held. Probably a record. Less than one hour.
Our Grand Master was in attendance. We all enjoyed having him with us and his remarks.
Then to Tursi's Latin King Restaurant for the Festive Board. Where we ate a wonderful meal, enjoyed great fellowship and listened to the first paper presented by Worshipful Master Brother Tim Bonney.
You can see the excitement and happiness on the Brothers faces. This is what our Lodge is all about.
What started as a discussion and plans for a dinner club has grown into Iowa's first "Restoration" Lodge. We feel like proud papa's. Now to see our "baby" grow and prosper.
It was an "overflow crowd" so Craig and I shared a booth.
It took a lot of work to get to this point. Now we need to work to continue to grow. We received two petitions at the meeting. Had a "Chain of Union" at the end of the meeting.
Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for Brethren to dwell together in Unity.
Thanks for stopping by. Remember you are loved. Hugs, j

Glad you had a good meeting. I missed Phrog and the sisters, but maybe they are off honeymooning and are taking the week off. Hope all is well with you.
