A Great Degree Night at Union Lodge

March 17,  Union Lodge was honored to raise a Brother to the sublime degree of Master Mason with the illustrious Donald Mason PM conferring a flawless degree.

Our degree evening concluded with the administering of Cake and Ice and fellowship enjoyed by all!

Union Lodge thanks all the visiting Brethren and the support!

It is with profound pride and fraternal joy that we share a momentous announcement from the Indianapolis Annual Meeting:

Brother William B. Bittinger, 32°, MSA, has been nominated to receive the 33°, the highest honor bestowed by the Supreme Council, at the Boston Annual Meeting in August of 2027.

This recognition is not merely a personal milestone—it is a reflection of Brother Bittinger’s unwavering dedication to the Craft, his exemplary service to our Masonic family, and the light he continues to shine in our fraternity. The 33° is conferred upon those whose contributions transcend the ordinary, and Brother Bittinger stands as a beacon of such distinction.

Let us join together in heartfelt congratulations and best wishes as he prepares to receive this most esteemed honor. May his journey inspire each of us to labor with renewed purpose, humility, and brotherly love.

Masonic Recognition – Advisor of the Year 2025

Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania – August 16, 2025

At the annual Council of Deliberation, held in Elizabethtown and presided over by Illustrious Brother Keith E. Parkinson, Deputy for the State of Pennsylvania for the Northern Masonic Jurisdiction of the Scottish Rite, a moment of profound recognition was bestowed upon a devoted servant of Masonic youth.

Margaret Griego, esteemed Mother Advisor of Beaver Valley Rainbow Assembly #187, was honored with the Advisor of the Year Award for 2025—a tribute to her unwavering dedication, compassionate leadership, and enduring commitment to the values of family, tradition, and fraternal mentorship.

Her service exemplifies the very essence of Masonic labor: quiet strength, tireless stewardship, and the nurturing of future generations in the light of our Craft.

Congratulations Margaret, on this well-deserved and prestigious achievement!

Sincerely and fraternally,
William B. Bittinger, PM
37th Masonic District Youth Chairman
