Brethren from the Provincial Grand Lodge of Valencia , were very pleased to be able to deliver a large number of donations collected from local lodges at the Costa Nova Masonic Centre to the HELP shop in Javea. These much-needed items will be added to and delivered to those in need who are still suffering in the recent flood-affected areas of Valencia.
It was stated that it was wonderful to see the true spirit of Freemasonry exemplified by such a large number of generous donations, which are still very much needed by those still suffering in the wake of the recent floods.
On Friday 25th October Lodge Dovre held one of its regular meetings which was attended by 31 brethren from Norway and Iceland.
This Lodge is not so well known in the Province, so it is a pleasure to publish a photo of the Lodge Officers

It’s nearly That Time of Year again!
Yes, the Christmas decorations are already up in the high street and it’s time to recycle last year’s Christmas jumper.
Here is a novel idea and a great way to support the 2026 Provincial Festival.
Bro’s Barry Hovell and Hamish McConnachie have produced a 2025 Calendar featuring some of the great events held within our Province in 2024. This is a lovely and practical way of supporting the 2026 Festival with a useful and eye-catching addition to your home or office.
The calendars are a bargain price of only 10€ each and will be available for purchase from Barry at the Provincial Ladies’ Night and at the Provincial Lodge of Instruction.
Calendars can also be ordered from Barry directly by emailing him at: hovellbarry2@gmail.com
We will produce another calendar for 2026 and hope to have a photo competition with the best Masonic pictures included, so dust off those cameras and get ready for those upcoming events.
