The Rebirth Of Spring

(Updated April 9, 2023)

As the Winter season gradually releases its grip, the Spring season stands poised to rejuvenate life. The flora and fauna started showing signs of growth and activity. The universe is once again regaining vitality. The Masonic community is brimming with enthusiasm at the possibilities that this new season brings. The Lodge welcomed new Entered Apprentices, Brothers from other Lodges, and potential candidates who are eager to embark on their lifelong journey in Freemasonry.

Spring is a period of readiness, and our Entered Apprentices are currently preparing their proficiency to progress to the Fellowcraft Degree. At Blazing Star Lodge, every Brother is enthusiastically preparing for the Summer opportunities that lie ahead. Our primary charitable outreach program, the Brothers of the Bread, continues to expand, and it has been able to supply nearly 10,000 loaves of bread, jelly, snacks, and treats to food pantries throughout Western New York. The town will soon be bustling with activity and events. As part of the East Aurora community since 1817, we joyfully get involved with cookouts and other opportunities to strengthen our contribution to The Village of East Aurora.


Our main charitable outreach, Brothers Of The Bread, continues to grow and provide thousands of loaves of bread, jelly, treats, and green beans to food pantries across New York State and now into Pennsylvania. We are welcoming another Lodge near the Buffalo City limits to assist with at least three new food pantries. We also welcomed a Lodge in Cattaraugus County to help supply our Southertier pantries.

If you are interested in Freemasonry in East Aurora, NY, and want to help those in need, contribute to the community, and become part of a worldwide fraternity, please feel free to contact us for an in-person or Zoom meeting to learn more.

Blazing Star Lodge – East Aurora, NY

Proud yet unassuming and slightly hidden behind some old-growth trees, the Blazing Star Masonic Lodge stands as a permanent fixture in East Aurora, New York.  It overlooks the town with a protective eye ensuring all who pass are good and upright citizens.  We like to think that the presence of the Lodge in our town sets a stage of history, pride, and Brotherly love among the members of the Lodge and the citizens of the town.

As part of the East Aurora, New York community since 1818, the Blazing Star Masonic Lodge actively seeks ways to contribute to the success of our neighbors.  We do this by supporting little league baseball, FISH of East Aurora, The Rural Outreach Center, and Scholarships to graduating seniors at Iroquois High School and East Aurora High School.  Most recently the formation of Brother Of The Bread, led by Brother Andrew Egressy.  We are interested in our community and the people who call East Aurora and surrounding areas, home.  

Our members meet in the Lodge every second and fourth Tuesday of each month September through June.  Dinners begin at 6:30 pm with communications starting promptly at 7:30 pm.  If you are a good and upstanding man, interested in improving your life and the life of everyone around you, please do not hesitate to knock on our door, virtually or literally, before 7:30 pm, and join us for dinner.  We encourage social discussions before and after official communications are complete.

This week, we're exploring the concept of death as humans understand it. Removing all religious dogma, we follow an article founded in reason that tells us the truth–the cure for death…perhaps, is a revelation into its true nature. We also speak about the most misunderstood Tarot card ever…probably. 🙂 Thanks for listening, and have a great week!
