Summer Newsletter

​Greetings Sir Knights, 
 
The Grand Master for the State of Ohio is allowing in lodge meetings, but does not include the Commanderies.  On May 4, 2020, The Grand Master of the Grand Encampment issued General Order #12 not allowing in-person conclaves.  This order is still in effect until further notice.

Hopefully by September, Conclaves can resume.  I will post any news on Findlay’s facebok page website or any other way I can get the word out.

We can look forward to conducting the Orders of the Commandery on 2 petitioners.  Also, the full form Opening will be conducted on December 8, 2020 and Inspection of The Order of the Temple on Jan. 30, 2021.

This is also the time we elect officers.  All current officers are staying in those positions for 2021.  We do need to fill the position of Warder.  If anyone is interested please contact me.

The 178 Annual Conclave for Ohio is scheduled for Oct. 9&10, 2020 at the Great Wolf Lodge in Mason, Ohio.  Information can be found on the Ohio Knights Templar website.

I hope this message finds you well.  It’s been a long, crazy and historic time,. God be with you Sir Knights. 
   
 
Yours Truly,  
Tom DeFrieze

​Greetings Sir Knights, 
  
I hope all are in good health during this worldwide health crisis.  Please adhere to the guidelines given by our leaders of the Country, State, County and our heads of Bodies.

As every Mason knows, all activities are cancelled or postponed until May 10th or possibly longer.  We are and will use our lines of communication meaning Facebook, group texts and emails, and person to person phone calls to advise members of important information.

I have received several phone calls and messages checking up on me. Thanks to all.  I encourage all of us to check on each other and help if you can without subjecting yourself to serious injury. My phone is usually handy.  Please call or text for any reason even just to talk. 
 
BE SAFE 
 
Yours Truly,
Tom DeFrieze
