On Monday 22nd April 2024 some 19 members including the Inspector General met at Freemasons Hall, Redditch for the Enthronement Meeting.
The MWS, Ill Bro. Del Padmore, 30° received the Inspector General and proffered him the baton, for which the Inspector General thanked the MWS but stated that as they both had work to do he would prefer him to conduct his meeting.
In welcoming the Visitors, the MWS also mentioned the Chapter’s very good attendance at the Installation Meeting of the IG on 2nd February, commenting on what an excellent day it was. The IG thanked to Chapter for their support.
The Enthronement of E&P Bro Steven Roadley 18°, was then conducted in an excellent manner using the 2024 Ritual, followed by the Appointment and Installation of the Officers for the ensuing year.
The Inspector General then had great pleasure in presenting E&P Bro. Daren Field with his Supreme Council Certificate in his usual informative style.
Following the conducting of the 3rd Point and the closure of the Chapter, 18 members retired to the Refectory to enjoy a very convivial evening meal, which was notable in that it was the first occasion since the Close Down for Covid that the Chapter had sufficient numbers attending to enable them to use the Lodge Rooms catering facilities.
The whole evening was a very good example of all that is good in Rose Croix Masonry.
