Henllys Christmas Carol Service
Henllys Lodge’s traditional Christmas Carol Service saw over 70 people enjoy a fantastic evening of singing and quizzing. The quiz was hosted by the Deputy Provincial Grand Master, Chris Evans, who also lead and conducted the carol singing. A fine buffet was enjoyed after the quiz, which helped prepare everyone for the carol singing. A raffle saw the event raise £255 for charity.
After two practice runs we finished up with a fine rendition of the 12 Days of Christmas.
Elvis and the D.P.G.M.
Worshipful Brother Keith (Elvis) Davies and the Deputy Provincial Grand Master, Chris Evans, sang together at the Borough Theatre, Abergavenny on Saturday. The event was a Christmas charity event, which was completely sold out and attended by numerous Freemasons.
Llantarnam Chapter
This evening Brother Darryl Richards was exalted into Llantarnam Royal Arch Chapter becoming a “Companion”. He was exalted by Excellent Companions Tom Delaney, Alyn Chown and Jonathan Davies.
In England and Wales, there is an indissoluble link between Craft Freemasonry and the Royal Arch, with the Royal Arch being considered the completion of a Freemason’s journey in Pure Antient Masonry.
Craft Masons are, therefore, actively encouraged to become members of the Royal Arch to further develop and enrich their understanding of Freemasonry. If you are a Master Mason then please speak to your Royal Arch Chapter representative.
Welcome Brother
Brother Michael Hendrie was initiated into Kennard Lodge at the November meeting in a very impressive manner.
The Immediate Past Master (I.P.M.) presents Brother Mike Parsons with a cheque for £500 for the Noah’s Ark Children’s Hospital.
Kennard Big Quiz
Over thirty people enjoyed the quiz at Kennard Lodge in November with over £200 raised for charity.
Another Double Initiation

Pagham Lodge
Four Henllys Brethren visited Pagham Lodge number 8280, near Bognor Regis on Saturday supporting Brother John Coombs who is a member of both Pagham and Henllys Lodge’s. Pagham delivered an outstanding second degree ceremony passing Brother Charles Stuart to Fellow Craft Freemason. W. Bro.

This was followed by the Festive Board where W.Bro. Gareth White presented the Worshipful Master with a copy of the Monmouthshire Masons 2024 Festival Music C.D. After the Festive Board the Brethren retired to the bar area to make arrangements for a reciprocal visit to Henllys by Pagham Lodge and continuing visits in the years to come.
A massive thank you to the Brethren of Pagham Lodge for their very warm welcome and we look forward to seeing you again soon.
