The Master's Message
November 2025

 

Greetings from the East,
 
Thanks again to Wor. Paul Russell and the brothers of Widows Sons Lux Aeterna for organizing a successful 2nd Annual Bike and Car Show. We had a great time enjoying good food, fellowship, and awesome vehicles, all while raising money for our youth orders. Our brothers, friends and family also gave a loving, beautiful tribute to Wor. Jim Jarnagin at his Celebration of Life at the end of the month.
 
This November, we will hold our Annual Election of Officers at the end of our Stated Meeting, and continue to prepare for advanced stations and the Installation in December. Please join us as Reseda’s Famous All-You-Can-Eat Pancake Breakfast returns on November 9th, from 8 AM through 12 PM. All brothers, friends and family are welcome: enjoy endless pancakes, French toast, eggs, bacon, sausage, coffee and orange juice, as we raise funds for our deserving youth groups.
 
Reseda will be dark on the last week of the month in honor of Thanksgiving Day. Let each of us offer our prayers of gratitude to Almighty God, the Great Architect of the Universe, for the many blessings poured down upon us, our loved ones, and our beloved lodge.
 
As 2025 draws toward its close, I am grateful for the steady hands and faithful hearts that have kept Reseda Lodge thriving: our officers for their humble and cheerful diligence, the Past Masters who readily offered their wise counsel, the many brothers who generously offered their hard work, talents and encouragement, and to each of our families for their steadfast support. As we take stock of our wages in corn, wine, and oil: the fruits of labor, the joy of fellowship, and the balm of charity; we, the brethren of Reseda No. 666, find ourselves richly remunerated.

Cordially and Fraternally on the Square,
Daniel Rivera, PM
Master, Reseda No. 666

 



From the West


The month of October went by too fast. The Officers have been diligently practicing in advanced stations
getting ready for qualifications. It’s been a very busy month.

The Celebration of Life for Worshipful James O. Jarnagin was very well attended. I know we made him proud. I imagine he’s up in the Celestial Lodge Above smiling down on us. Till we meet again.

Be sure to see the Events Schedule. Looking forward to seeing everyone at the Stated Meeting on November 6th .

Upon the Level,
 
Glen O. Moore, Sr.
Senior Warden

 



From the South 


Brethren we had a great October month. I would like to thank Wor. Bro. Paul Russell and Wor. Daniel Rivera for their efforts with the 2nd Annual Bike and Car Show, it was a great success. I am looking forward to our Pancake Breakfast on November 9th, here at Reseda Lodge.
