Dear Brethren,

In consideration of the most recent announcements made by the Royal Family and the Australian Government in relation to the funeral and National Day of Mourning of our late Sovereign of most happy and glorious memory, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second, as a mark of respect, all Masonic activities on the following days will be suspended:

19 September 2022, Funeral service of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second.

22 September 2022, National Day of Mourning.

Lodges are, by the authority of the Worshipful Master, either to cancel their meeting outright; re-schedule their meeting to another day; or hold their meeting by Zoom on another day, without the need for dispensation.

Our continued thoughts and prayers are with the Royal Family and all who mourn this great loss during this most sad time.

Fraternally,

RWBro. Bruce Cowie
Grand Secretary
