On Saturday, May 9th, under the canopy of heaven, Hialeah Opa-Locka Lodge No. 391 conferred the Sublime Degree of Master Mason upon Brothers Ryan Morgan of Royal Palm Lodge No. 100 and Enrique Bastista. This occasion marked the first time in well over a decade that a degree was conferred outdoors, making it a truly memorable event for all in attendance.
Worshipful Brother Lazaro Moreira presided in the East for the first section, exemplifying a calm, stoic demeanor and a commanding presence. Worshipful Brother Ruben Ovalle presided over the second section, distinguished by his excellence in ritual work and masterful portrayal of his role.
The ceremony was attended by several dignitaries from the 26th, 27th, and 29th Masonic Districts, including Right Worshipful District Deputy Grand Master Kelvin Justice, along with numerous Brothers who gathered in support of the newly raised Master Masons.
This distinguished event was made possible through special dispensation granted by Most Worshipful Tali Atala, Grand Master of Masons of Florida.
