13 November 12 th Mt. Moriah #28 hosted the annual Legendary Table Lodge, with the Most Worshipful Grand Master of New Jersey, Gerald J. Sharpe as guest speaker. This event was held at the Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite, in Bordentown, New Jersey. It s a great event promoting fraternity and brotherhood. As the saying goes, A good time was had by all. The AASR banquet room in Bordentown, New Jersey This rich Masonic tradition was first brought to Mt. Moriah by the Most Worshipful Edgar N. Peppler, who first experienced these events while traveling as Grand Master to Lodges in New England. He enjoyed it so much, that in 1982 he encouraged the Lodge to adopt this tradition using a combination of dinner rituals in New Jersey, Vermont and New Hampshire. It has been so popular that many other Lodges in New Jersey are now using this ritual. 13
14 November 24 th The Lodge held a Past Masters night as two new Master Masons were raised by a Degree Team of Officers and Past Masters. And this ceremony is just one more fraternal tradition that helps make Mt. Moriah one of the best Masonic Lodges in the state of New Jersey. (See photo below.) The first of two consecutive nights of raising new Master Masons November 25 th There was a second consecutive night, for the raising of two new Master Masons. The ceremony was performed in conjunction with the Grand Lodge Degree Team, honored guests, and with the Most Worshipful Gerald J. Sharpe, Grand Master of New Jersey in attendance. Certainly, it was one of the most impressive ceremonies ever held at Mt. Moriah (the Canadian Charge was awesome). This was to honor our two newly raised Master Masons, who had been distinguished leaders and officers in the International DeMolay (Christopher Michael LaBaw and Edgar Ross Peppler). 14
15 Nov. 25 th - Newly raised Master Masons and seven current and past Grand Masters December 13 th The 160 th Masonic Installation of Officers was held at the Lodge. The ceremony was well attended by Brothers, their family and friends. Jose G. Gonzalez was installed as the new Worshipful Master, and the ritual was led by the Most Worshipful Brother Edgar N. Peppler, (former Grand Master of New Jersey). 15

LaBaw December 18 th Our Year ended with Brothers of Mt. Moriah, family, and friends visited the Masonic Home of New Jersey, for the annual Christmas Social & Caroling (with special thanks to Brother Joe Franken). Songbooks (provided by Brother Bob McCormick) were titled, Verdon R. Skipper Christmas Tour, in memory of Brother Skipper, who passed away in Following are some comments from Brothers who attended: The spirit of Brother Skipper was rejoicing from heaven watching families and friends of our Lodge continuing a tradition that was so important to him. (Worshipful Master Joe Gonzalez) I concur wholeheartedly with your sentiments (Joe). You also deserve credit for spearheading the activity. (Worshipful Brother George Chidley) 16
17 Members of Mt. Moriah, family & friends caroling at the Masonic Home of New Jersey I think it was a great night, and the pictures show (some of) the joy. (Worshipful Brother Dave Blew) Yes, many hands make light work of a great event!! Skipper, No Doubt is Proud!! (Brother Joe Franken) 17
18 WB Joe Gonzalez gives Christmas gifts to a family member associated with Mt. Moriah Regular Lodge Events Poker Night was established as a monthly event to promote fraternity amongst our Brothers. And it was held in the friendly confines of the Most Worshipful Lewis Parker Room (another of Mt. Moriah s Past Grand Masters of New Jersey). We also had a number of Wheel Chair Push Sunday events in support of the Masonic Home of New Jersey. And once again, the Craftsman Club had four delicious fund raising dinners in 2014, as well as regular monthly meetings through the continuing efforts of Worshipful Brother Holmes L. Hay, Brother Jim Potts, and the Brothers of Mt. Moriah! Respectfully submitted, Brother: William S. Jennings 18
