It is the custom of
Specialis Procer Lodge #678 to hold a Festive Board every other month to eat together and listen to a paper of Masonic interest. We publish these papers on our blog
Scire Facias.
Tonight we returned to
Baratta's Restaurant and there were so many of us that we had to be moved to a larger room than we usually have.
The Brethren order off the menu and after a delicious meal we have our paper
Worshipful Master Kurt
Hoffmann introduced the guests that were with us. We had a total of 22 members and guests at the meal
And then it was time to hear Brother
Levent's presentation which was on Masonry in Turkey. It was interesting to hear how Masonry is practiced in his home country. He even showed us a couple of pictures of the Wedding Ceremony which was held in his Lodge for him and his wife. (who is very beautiful)
I have said it before and will say it again. This Lodge provides me with the richest Masonic experience I have ever had. I hope it will continue to grow and prosper. I could go on and on and talk about how good and how pleasant it is for Brethren to dwell together in Unity but perhaps you have heard that someplace before. Tomorrow is the Reception for our Junior Grand Steward of the Grand Lodge here in
Ames so stop back for more pictures of that event. j

Bro. Levent gave us one of the most interesting presentations we've had to date. He needs to take this show on the road--every Iowa Mason would benefit from hearing what he has to say. I DO hope he reads this comment!
(And yes, I just got home...)
