Nobles,
As you know the cost of operating our Temple keeps going up and we need funds to cover these expenses.One of the best ways to help with these expenses is with new members.As we grow our membership we add to our funds to help cover the cost of doing business.To me this is better for all of us vs having to consider dues increases.I ask that you make every effort to go out and get new members. When you become a Shriner,you become part of a brotherhood of men committed to family,engaged in ongoing personal growth,and dedicated to providing care of children and familes in need through Shriners Hospitals for Children.Dues for 2010 are at a bargin compared to what other Temples charge.Each petition also includes dinner for the newly elected Shriner and his spouse.Let's Rock our Temple come April 24th 2010 and have one Great Shrine Ceremonial.
Yours in the Faith,
Edward F. Marina PP
Membership Chairman
