On Tuesday 2nd April 2019, the Royal Yorkshire Lodge conducted a ceremony of Passing for Bro Micheal Halliday. The ceremony was well attended by 23 visitors and members which concluded with an excellent festive board.

Bro Halliday, who originally joined the lodge after an enquiry through the lodge website, described the ceremony as “very special” and said he “looked forward to progressing through his masonic career”.

The Worshipful Master, WBro Chris Wilcock, went on to congratulate the candidate and said that he was a credit to the lodge. The IPM WBro Armitage went on to also congratulate the Master and his officers on an excellent ceremony.
