The Growth Of Summer
(Updated July 6, 2023)
Winter’s cold grasp on the land was tempered by the rebirth of Spring’s gentle warmth. Summer is here! There is always much to do during the summer months. Attending to gardens, planting vegetables, and tending to our land. It is a time of plenty when the “fish are jumping and the livin’ is easy”. When it seems like the long summer days could last forever.
During the summer months, Blazing Star Brothers take every opportunity to get involved with the community. You will find us selling hotdogs and hamburgers on Saturday, July 29th at the East Aurora Street Sale and Sunday, August 27th at the Toy Town Car Show. Our main charitable outreach, Brothers Of The Bread is still growing. We are receiving several tons of jelly this August! We recently received several thousand pairs of gloves. All of which will get distributed to food pantries in the area.
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.

Blazing Star Lodge #694 F&AM – East Aurora
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.
Since 1906 our Lodge stands as a building of humble men striving to better themselves and in turn make the world a better place. This is what we do. We would love to talk to you more about Freemasonry please contact us anytime.
