The list of elected officers of the Kosciuszko Lodge No. 1085 for the year 2008/2009

 

 

W.·.Michael Jachimczyk

Elected May 21, 2008

 

 

My Brothers, it is a special honor to serve in the East during this year which marks the 80^th anniversary of our Lodge.  So far as I know, we are the only Polish Lodge in North America.  We are beneficiaries of the unique legacy established by all those members who established a foundation in masonry for those of us who share a common ethnic heritage.  Many of us had no family history of involvement with freemasonry, but we were “masons in our hearts” long before we sought further light in the lodge.
