Congratulations to our newest Entered Apprentice Bro Mark Richardson who was initiated into the mysteries and privileges of Ancient Freemasonry at our regular meeting on Tuesday the 18th April 2017.
The ceremony was performed faultlessly by the Worshipful Master with assistance of Past Masters. A very impressive ceremony.
Bro. Mark lives in Cramlington with his wife Rachael and 2 children with one on the way. Bro Mark is an Infrastructure Architect employed by Acxiom Ltd; an IT company based in the US with offices around the world, including Sunderland, that develops marketing strategies. In his spare time, Bro Mark enjoys motorcycles, and volunteers for the Northumbria Blood Bikes charity which delivers essential blood and other urgent medical supplies out of hours between hospitals and healthcare sites in North East England.
He is taking part in the Northumbria Blood Bikes 360 Challenge 2017 on Saturday 22nd April and is asking friends and family to sponsor his ride to raise money for the charity. The challenge is a one day 300+ mile ride around the North East of England in the area covered by Northumbria Blood Bikes. His target is to raise £360 so if you can help please follow this link to his fundraising page.
It’s another great year for Lodge Temperance 2557 so keep checking back for all the latest news.
