Michigan Masons Weekly Electronic Newsletter
The Grand Lodge of Michigan
Week of June 27, 2011
Bob C Photo Greetings!

Thanks to everyone who sent in stories about their Bikes for Books programs.  So many good things going on.  We really appreciate it.

We had a great interview with WXYZ, the ABC affiliate in Detroit.  To view it, click here:  Interview with WXYZ

I also have a few DVD's of the interview if you would like to use it for a Masonic Awareness program, open house or any other program where you need a four minute clip.  Just send me a note.

I've included a new link to Zig Ziglar speaking on Impossible Problems.  I know you'll enjoy it and find it helpful in your journey. 

We're still looking for all of you who are or were Lodge Education Officers.  See the article below and click on the link to assist us in locating you.

There are a couple of golf outings coming up.  If your lodge or group is hosting one, let me know and I'll get it in the e-news for next week.

As always, Poets Corner, Weekly Motivations and the Masonic Challenge are included. 

Have a great week, we'll see you down the road!

God Bless,
Bob
