Back to Work with John Hindle Lodge No 9432.

A very enjoyable meeting was had by the members and guests of John Hindle Lodge when, last week, they returned to labour from their short summer recess.

The Lodge Master, Keith Brooks and his Officers carried out full opening and closing in all degrees, in a very competent and composed manner.

In addition, our Assistant Provincial Secretary, Ian Church, was in attendance to carry out a number of formal presentations.

As a Master Mason, it’s very special to be presented with your Grand Lodge certificate and James Cook was treated to Ian’s personal tour around the Lodge room during which the furniture and ornaments are used to illustrate and explain the detail of the certificate.

Following that, new Initiate, Tony Bullimore, was presented with his Provincial Passport and Adam Lord received a Jewel in recognition of his support for the Bedfordshire 2026 Festival.

The meeting concluded with an enjoyable festive board that had a bit of a party feel, with all congratulating Les Washbrook, who has just celebrated his 90th birthday!
