MY BROTHER AND SISTERS ALL:  

I   DEEPLY APPRECIATE   THAT  THE DELEGATES TO  OUR RECENTLY CONCLUDED 29^th  BIENIUM STATE CONVENTION UNAMINOUSLY ELECTED ME TO THE OFFICE OF  THE PRESIDENCY  OF THE GRAND  LODGE OF  FLORIDA. I  FOLLOW A GROUP OF PAST PRESIDENTS WHO DEDICATED THEIR SERVICE TO MAKE OUR GRAND LODGE WHAT IS TODAY. I VOW TO OUR ENTIRE MEMERSHIP OF THE GRAND LODGE OF FLORIDA THAT I WILL FOLLOW IN THEIR FOOTSTEPS AND WILL DEDICATE ALL OF MY ENERGIES TOWARDS MOVING IN A POSITIVE DIRECTION.  

 WE ARE ALL AWARE THAT IN UNITY THERE IS STRENGTH AND WE WILL STRIVE TO ACHIEVE THIS GOAL. IF WE ARE TO SUCCEED IN ALL OF OUR PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS WE MUST POOL OUR RESOURCES TOWARD ONE COMMON GOAL. I  PLAN TO REACH OUT TO OUR ENTIRE MEMBERSHIP AND SELECT THOSE AMONG YOU WHO WILL WORK TIRELESSLY TO PROMOTE THE IDEALS OF OUR GREAT ORDER. WHY WOULD WE WISH TO DO LESS?

 I ASK ONE AND ALL TO BOND TOGETHER WITH ONE COMMON GOAL, THAT IS TO VIGOROUSLY SUPPORT OUR BEAUTIFUL ITALIAN CULTURE AND LANGUAGE. WE MUST PUT WHATEVER SMALL DIFFERENCES THAT MAY EXIST AMONG US, REACH OUT AND HOLD HANDS TO WALK THE WALK TOGETHER. THAT WAS THE DREAM OF OUR BELOVED FOREFATHERS WHEN THEY ARRIVED ON THE SHORES OF THIS GREAT LAND THAT WE CALL AMERICA.  NOTHING LESS WILL DO.

EDWARD  MOTTOLA, JR.
