Grand Master's message

My dear Brethrens,


After completing 50 years of its foundation, Brasilia, Capital of Hope, will host the Masonic Family of the Midwest for its fourth regional meeting, as well as members of the Grand Lodges in other regions of the Country.


As in previous times, when Goiás, Mato Grosso do Sul and Mato Grosso states received the Family with indisputable nobility, so too, the Most Worshipful Masonic Grand Lodge of the Federal District expects to receive each and every one with the greatest joy, brotherhood and fraternity, during which our guests can experience a little better, the Capital of the Country, the headquarters of the Three Powers of the Republic, its monuments and its sights.


The Brethrens that make up our Grand Lodge already bent over backwards to host a reception at the highest level and worthy of our guests. The IV Reunion of the Grand Lodges of the Midwest Region will constitute a most rare opportunity for Masons to discuss issues involving the Brazilian Freemasonry and, in particular, the Freemasonry of the region.


From here we will all strengthen our union seeking to combine energies to welcome our guests with competence and create a climate in which it is possible to celebrate the friendship, fraternity and common spirit that unites all the Masonic Family who will attend the event.


Welcome!

JUVENAL BATISTA AMARAL
