We are all taught that one of the most important DeMolay Virtues
is practicing Love for Parents; or "Filial Love."
We also know that one of our seven Obligatory Days is Parent's
Day, held between Mother's Day and Father's Day each year.
The combined efforts of two Master Councilors from the Philadelphia
Region, Bros. Michael Hunt (Friendship-Bray) and Sam
Riddell (Northeast) led to a Parent's Day that was a huge
success.
The event was a fully catered breakfast, where the parents of the
DeMolays in all PA Chapters were invited at attend. The young men
were "supposed to" pay for their parents (although
we don't know how many did that) and serve them breakfast.
Bro. Joe Pullin, SJC and PMC-NE presented the Flower
Talk, and he did such a nice job, that we saw several parents wiping
their eyes.
This particular day also DOUBLED as a Prospect Event, as new member
Matt Libkind not only brought his father, but also
brought his brother and friend along - - they were so impressed
by everything and everyone, that they will be joining Friendship-Bray
Chapter! Nice job, Matt!
Let's keep the enthusiasm going, guys - - let's keep bringing in
those new members - - DeMolay in Philadelphia is on the grow!
"Dad" Rick Freedman
