Warwickshire Freemasons: September Wrap‑Up

Warwickshire Freemasons: September Wrap‑Up

This Masonic season has got off to a flying start with heritage, history, family moments, four initiates, an exaltation and a packed installation.

At the Lodge of Impartiality No. 5101 – Installation

James Murrell was installed into the Chair in a superb ceremony.

Gary Davis handed over the reins, Light Blues, Heart of England Lodge and the Widow’s Sons all turned out in force to support.

Assistant Provincial Grand Master Avtar Panesar joined the celebration, which was warm, lively and full of laughter.

Meridian Lodge – Quadruple Initiation

Forty brethren packed into the lodge room for four simultaneous initiations – no small feat for those who know the space.

The candidates were superb, the festive board was buzzing, and credit goes to David Leask, Dave Richards, and Mark Tyers (Junior Deacon) for flawless organisation.

Plus four new joining members.

Welcome Aaron, Adam, Alex and Tom.

Meridian now rests until May when the Worshipful Master, Matt Perkins, will be installing his father in a Family in Freemasonry celebration.

Nuneaton Lodge Rooms – Heritage Open Day

Over 150 visitors came through the doors, exploring the building, history and displays. A fantastic public engagement day.

Michael Price Lodge – 50 Years for WBro Peter Johnston

Assistant Provincial Grand Master Matt Perkins presented a 50‑year certificate to Peter Johnston, a brother who guided Matt during his early days at Meridian.

Peter’s son Rupert flew in from Dubai for the occasion, attending his first meeting in 20 years.

Michael Price himself was in the chair, making the morning even more special.

St Mary’s Chapter No. 7244 – Exaltation

A wonderful morning witnessing Bro Cassius being exalted into his father’s Chapter.

Several Companions (including a certain Past 2nd Grand Principal) stepped into officers’ chairs to make it a truly memorable meeting.
