Greetings All,

It remains my honor to serve as Worshipful Master of Council Lodge #778 of the MWPHGL Masonic District 14 for the 2021-2022 Masonic Year. Subordinate to the Most Worshipful Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Alabama, we work under the leadership of our Most Worshipful Grand Master M.W. Corey D. Hawkins, Sr., 33.

Giving thanks to God, I am grateful for the opportunity and proud to serve as Council’s Worshipful Master. My Brothers, I thank you for your continued trust in leading our great fraternity. Chartered in 1924, it is a great honor to lead our lodge with 95+ years history of excellence. Walking in the footsteps of the Charter members of Council, I am committed to the continued success of our lodge and the longevity of our fraternity. With the support and wise council, I am confident we will continue to grow in knowledge, faith, and deed.

We stand resolute in continuing the cultivation of benevolence. Our charitable outreach to the community of Birmingham, Alabama is unwavering. We will continue to strengthen the bond of brotherhood both in and outside the lodge. We continue to build upon the solid foundation of the fraternity.

“The Fraternity is strong.” We are strong in our faith, strong in our hope, and strong in our commitment to helping the community. We place God first in all that we do. Hope for enduring success drives us. Charitable acts are a defining characteristic of our organization. I am looking forward to the upcoming Masonic year and thank you for your support!

Meeting on the level, the men of Council will always part on the square.

Sincerely and Fraternally,

RW, Dennis Simmons

Council #778 Worshipful Master
