Congratulations to Worshipful Brother Lloyd Aaron and all the Brothers that helped and worked so hard on all the logistics. As we enjoy ourselves with fun events, let us not forget that the new year is quickly approaching and with a new year, comes new responsibilities and endeavors. In order for us to continue to be successful we have to realign our vision and commitment by attending and learning at Open Books and School of Instruction along with attending and participating in our monthly Masters and Wardens and our Lodge Officers meetings. My thoughts and prayers are with are with the victims and the families of those recently impacted by the horrific tragedy that took place in Pittsburgh's temple Tree of Life. Please keep all those impacted by Hurricane Michael in your thoughts and prayers. Let us work together to make a positive difference in their time of need. On a closing note from my Family to you and yours, we would like to wish you all a safe and enjoyable Halloween.

Kletsel P.M. From The South Greetings from the South: My Brothers, the year is quickly coming to an end. October was a memorable month for the brothers of Roe Fulkerson Lodge and we look forward to another good month in November. We hosted our Annual Halloween Party at the Broward Shrine Club on Saturday October 20th. The event was well supported by our district and was a wonderful evening of fellowship and fun. This month we will be hosting 2 stated meetings and our Lodge Game Night will be held on Friday November 30th. Please remember to save the dates in your calendars and spread the word around! The team in the South welcomes any participation, suggestions and recommendations for promoting and enhancing fellowship and brotherly love. If every brother reaches out to one member who has not attended Lodge for a while, we can easily boost our attendance and enhance our fellowship. We have all the light we need. We just need to put it in practice - Albert Pike Fraternally, Wayne Kissoondath Junior Warden Did you know that the Masonic Home Endowment Fund, Inc., has an AmazonSmile link that makes it easier for people to find and support our organization?

6 Outstanding Support!!!!! November 2018 The Honor Walk is underway in a big way! The 1 st order for bricks was delivered to Bricks-R-Us on August 25, The order will have at least 22 newly purchased bricks ordered and 20 of the complementary ones. It is a little surprising that the complementary (free) ones are coming in slower than the ones requiring new money. The slots reserved for the complementary pavers are showing that the Brothers really do want to pick their spots. We are also being pushed by the new purchasers to move up into the area reserved (Row A through L) for complementary pavers. I anticipate we will be opening all of the available slots (Row A through W) to new purchasers in the near future. Pavers are $50.00 each for 3 lines of text. Want a PM Emblem on your paver, just add $15.00 for each emblem. The year you were Worshipful Master will be etched below the emblem rocker. Hurray and order, pick your complementary slot as soon as possible. You have earned it by your past support of our building project. If you have not received an order form send an to rfl299@bellsouth.net or call the Secretary at The form may also be downloaded or printed from out website at

7 Brethren, Circumscribe is your tool to update your masonic record. Brothers have been accessing the online dashboard and uploading pictures for the new ID card. All members will receive a new dues card with or without a picture. To begin using Circumscribe, simply follow these instructions: Open your internet browsernavigate to: Enter your initial Username: "FL" + "Your Grand Lodge Number" + "@changeyour .info" (example: FL @changeyour .info) Enter your temporary Password: (it is) "FL" + "Your Grand Lodge Number" (example: FL ). Upon successfully entering both, you will be required to logout, and then log back in with your new credentials. When logged in scroll toward the bottom of the page. Your new User Name will be your preferred address. Your NEW password must contain 8 characters and 1 number. Yes, it is nine spaces. Once you have successfully logged back in, navigate to your Masonic profile by selecting `Profile' from the menu items on the left side of the screen. Review your profile and make any appropriate changes to your contact information, and upload a current picture for your new permanent ID card. You should upload your picture when you sign into your record. You will be able to sign without a picture, ordering a replacement card later, with picture, may require a fee. When uploading your picture, use as high a resolution as possible, and your face should be positioned to take up as much of the photo square as possible. There should be no hats, sunglasses, or other individuals or animals in the picture. Be sure to select 'Save Profile' to complete the process. Online help is always available at or by clicking the question mark icon on the top right of the Circumscribe dashboard once you are logged in. For additional support, please contact me.
