Brethren,

A significant and important part of my work is the pastoral visits I make to the Craft Lodges under my care. There are a number of reasons why I attach so much value to these visits; for me it means I get to meet the brethren on their own 'soil', find out more about the Lodge, provide any support that I am able and convey, in my own inimitable way, news and messages concerning our Districts, our Area, the Province and Freemasonry generally.

More importantly, it gives me the opportunity to listen to you, find out your problems and celebrate your succcesses. vitally, I am a Freemason just like you, and the main aim of my journey is always going to be to enjoy my time amongst brethren, all who share the same basic aim of relishing a night of happiness together.

With all this in mind I intend to keep an updated list of my visit schedule on this page. With many of my visits I am accompanied by the District Team and Acting Provincial Officers of the Year. This offers an excellent opportunity to meet them, all of whom share my enthusiasm for all things masonic. Collectively it is pretty certain we are going to enjoy an excellent time together.

The list below also explains which ceremony is being worked or what occasion is being celebrated and so on. You may not be a member of the Lodge concerned, but I am sure if you make contact with a request to visit, you will be made most welcome. Hence the final reason for this list - so you can find out where I am, swell the numbers and enjoy the occasion. Don't worry, I won't think you are stalking me!

I look forward to seeing you all on the circuit,

My best fraternal wishes,

WBro Martin Roche
