Nobles and Ladies All:

As I plan for 2020, I am excited about “Looking to the Future” and the opportunities it brings to our Temple. Opportunities to work to better engage our membership as well as to strive to attract new members so that we can continue to be good Shriners and support Shriners Hospitals for Children throughout 2020 and beyond. Our Temple is the 7th oldest, and the accomplishments have been nothing less than amazing – all because of you!

While “Looking to the Future” is important, I also believe that “Honoring the Past” is very valuable. As a second-generation Potentate, I am grateful for all those Potentates that have served before me, for their efforts are what provides me the privilege to serve you today. Learning from the successes and failures of the past, will help guide me on this journey as your Potentate in 2020. The decisions of the past have positioned our Temple where we are today and Lady Judy and I sincerely thank them and all of the members – Past, Present and Future for their efforts and support.

Yours in Faith,
Jerry A. Ulm
