The Master's Message
December 2025
Greetings from the East,
Thank you for supporting our November Pancake Breakfast. It was a joy to see a full house as we enjoyed great food, wonderful fellowship, and raised funds for our Youth Orders. I especially want to thank Bros. Edmond Abramyan, Homi Bhandari, and Frank Capurro, who were key players in our successful event. Well done, my brothers!
As the year draws to its quiet close, I find myself reflecting with deep gratitude on the privilege of serving you as Worshipful Master in 2025. The honor of sitting in the East is one I have carried with reverence from the first gavel to the last, and I thank each of you for the trust, patience, and fraternity you have shown throughout this year.
Reseda Lodge has always been a family bound by shared Light. This year we welcomed new Entered Apprentices, passed brothers to the degree of Fellowcraft, raised new Master Masons, enjoyed world class Masonic education, deepened friendships, and supported our sweethearts and brothers through thick and thin. We said our final goodbyes to dear friends while coming to meet new ones. Every degree team, every committee, every Brother who quietly set up tables, picked up dinner and refreshments, coached a candidate or officer, or delivered encouragement to our sick and distressed, contributed to the steady heartbeat of our Lodge.
December is a symbolic month for renewal: the winter solstice reminds us that light returns after the longest night. In the same spirit, our Lodge prepares for new leadership, fresh vision, and the continued strengthening of our Craft. I congratulate the incoming line of Officers and wish our next Worshipful Master, Bro. Glen Moore, clarity of mind, steadfastness of heart, and the full support of the Lodge: may the Great Architect of the Universe guide your hand in all your labors!
Brethren, thank you for allowing me to serve. Thank you for your wise counsel, your enthusiasm for ritual excellence and education, and your dedication to our charitable works, especially our much-beloved Pancake Breakfasts.
As I pass the gavel, I do so with a full heart. I look forward to standing among you again on the level, working side by side in brotherly harmony.
May this season bring peace to your homes, warmth to your families, and renewed light to your spiritual and Masonic journeys.
Cordially and Fraternally on the Square,
Daniel Rivera, PM
Master, Reseda No. 666
