This marked W.Bro. Wells’ first occasion presiding as Worshipful Master, and although he may not have been fully aware of the responsibilities that lay ahead, he quickly discovered the demands of office. His very first meeting was no small undertaking, being a Third Degree Ceremony held in November.
Since then, his calendar has been equally full. He has already overseen a First Degree Demonstration, and is preparing to conduct two First Degree Ceremonies scheduled for January and February.
It is clear that W.Bro. Wells has begun his year in office with energy and commitment, embracing the challenges of leadership and guiding the Lodge through a busy and rewarding programme of work.
