MW Bro. Khris Albano, it gives me much pleasure to extend our heartfelt congratulations to you on your Installation as Grand Master of The United Grand Lodge of New South Wales and The Australian Capital Territory. I do so on behalf of the Brethren of South Australia and The Northern Territory and myself.

You will with no doubt bring a different vision to your Grand Lodge, enhancing the order and marking a new chapter enshrining “Brotherly Love, Relief and Truth” in all your endeavours.

We look forward to aligning our craft relationship and cooperation even more closely during your tenure. With an enthusiastic and capable team you can look at a wonderful term in office and we wish you a successful three years deriving a great deal of satisfaction with everlasting memories.

We congratulate MW Bro. Les Hicks on his successful and enlightening term as Grand Master and share numerous fond memories of his term especially our visit to Silverton Installation in that small but quaint lodge building and interaction at many Grand Installations. MW Bro. Les you have left big shoes to fill.

MW Bro. Kris enjoy your time as Grand Master, Heather and I wish every success and joy over the next three years. In fulfilling your dreams and aspirations in support of your brethren you will create many wonderful memories I feel sure.
