Last year a senior should have received a Masonic Scholarship and was very disappointed when she did not. She was well qualified and deserving and had strong Masonic ties. They were overlooked because we didn’t realize she was a senior.
Please let us know by December 1 if you have a child or grandchild who will graduate from an area High school next spring. We will inform the school and ask them to give special consideration if they apply.

On June 27, 2008 Fond du Lac Lodge #26 Junior Deacon, George Weigel, presented a $250 check to Broken Bread Chair, Kathleen Mac Gregor, to aid in replenishing their food supply which was destroyed in the June flooding.
Broken Bread distributes food and other supplies on Friday afternoons to those in the Fond du Lac area. Over 100 volunteers collect and distribute food gathered from grocery stores, restaurants, bakeries, correctional institutions, as well as produce and dairy items purchased by Broken Bread. Other large contributions of food are received from the Boy Scout, Girl Scout, and Letter Carrier food drives. A group of volunteers prepare a light meal to serve our guests. Broken Bread serves 170 to 180 families each week and provided food to 27,000 people in 2006. Broken Bread has been a chartered mission of the Cathedral since 1991. The Cathedral also serves as a distribution site for the Share Program, a statewide aid organization that distributes food once a month.
For more information on Broken Bread contact: St. Paul’s Cathedral, 51 W. Division Street, Fond du Lac – 920-921-3363.
