Message From R W the Regional Grand Master R W Bro. T. N. Manoharan
Dear R W Bro. Pratapkaran Paul,
It gives me immense pleasure to congratulate you and the Brethren on the completion of 100 years of glorious existence and functioning of Madras Masters Lodge No.103 (MML). It is heartening to know that many legendary leaders in the masonic movement have been members of MML. It is a matter of pride that MML has grown from strength to strength and endured its journey with excellence.
The centenary celebrations in the annals of any Institution is distinctly special and I am delighted that you are commemorating it at the Freemasons’ Hall, Chennai in a befitting manner on the 1st of July, 2023. On this occasion it is appropriate to hail successive worshipful Masters and officers of the Lodge, who carried the mantle during the past, for their dedicated service.
The activities such as demonstration of various ceremonies in the craft ritual working organized regularly, sponsoring best Lodge and best master trophies and the charity projects carried out by MML are noteworthy. History of the Lodge and milestones achieved in a consistent manner during its long journey are quite inspiring and worthy of emulation by other Lodges.
I take this opportunity to wish Madras Masters Lodge No.103 to continue to make laudable strides and positively impact Brethren by dissemination of masonic knowledge. May the Brethren of MML and their family members be bestowed with good health and happiness. May the Great Architect of the Universe bless us all with adequate strength to continue to uphold the rich tradition and values of the Institution in an exemplary manner.
With fraternal regards, With Fraternal Regards,
R W Bro. T. N. Manoharan, P.DY.G.M. Regional Grand Master
Regional Grand Lodge of Southern India
