From the Editor
The Bombay Deacon is an attempt to bring the brethren of various lodges of the District of Bombay closer, by posting news which is high on pictures, and less on text. News which does not require login, storage space, or emails. Please circulate The Bombay Deacon to all your brethren through the lodge and chapter WhatsApp groups.
For posting information on upcoming events or news for the next edition, please route them to the District Communication Officers WhatsApp group through your Lodge Communication Officer by 15th July, with name of the lodge/ chapter, and date of event.
This issue was brought together by the efforts of Bro Parth Shastri, Lodge Bromham No. 6175, Nagpur; and W. Bro. Craig Michael, Lodge St. George No. 549.
