Kevin Herring 2026 WM

I am sincerely grateful and honored to serve as Worshipful Master of Hendersonville Lodge #359 for 2026. Thank you for the confidence you have placed in me. I am mindful that I follow a long line of dedicated Past Masters, and I am proud to continue the work they have done in building and strengthening our Lodge.

I would also like to congratulate our newly installed officers. I look forward to working alongside each of you as we serve the together. My thanks as well to all who were able to attend the installation ceremony. Your presence and support made it a memorable occassion. A special note of appreciation goes to Roy Etherton and Bill Woodward for their participation and assistance with the installation ceremony; your efforts were greatly appreciated.

We are fortunate to be members of such a strong and respected Lodge, and I am excited about the year ahead. I encourage each of us to reach out to Brothers we have not seen in a while and invite them to return and take part in our meetings and activities. Our Lodge is at its best when we support one another and share the fellowship that makes Masonry meaningful.

As we move forward, let us keep in mind the words of Brother George Washington: “So far as I am acquainted with the principles and doctrines of Freemasonry, I conceive it to be founded on benevolence and to be exercised only for the good of mankind.” May that spirit guide us throughout the year, and I look forward to working with each of you to make it a great one.
