On Thursday, 9th July 2019 the Archbishop Æthelhelm Court No. 34 was honoured by a visit from the Deputy Provincial Grand Master, W.Bro. Mark Donovan, KAG.
After the Court was opened the Provincial Grand Marshal, W.Bro. Chris Eley, was admitted and advised the Worshipful Master, W.Bro. Rev Derek Williamson, that the Deputy Provincial Grand Master was in the ante room and demanded admission to the Court. The Deputy Provincial Grand Master entered in procession with the Provincial team, was presented with the gavel, took the Chair and was saluted with 5 under the direction of the Provincial Grand Marshal. The Deputy Provincial Grand Master said how good it was to be visiting his mother Court on his first Official Visit since his appointment and introduced the Provincial team, thanking them for their support.
After the Deputy Provincial Grand Master had vacated the Chair, the Worshipful Master delivered a talk entitled ‘Athelstan and his family’ which was well received. The Deputy Provincial Grand Master was then invited to present a Grand Court Certificate to Bro Alan Hall, which was done in a very informative way.
After the meeting the Brethren of the Archbishop Æthelhelm Court and their guests sat down to a most enjoyable meal at the Nutfield Masonic Centre.
