124th Year of Philippine Independence

-

MD Nueva Ecija East and Aurora under the leadership of DDGM Rommel Angara joins the national commemoration of the 124th anniversary of Bro. Emilio Aguinaldo's declaration of Philippine independence from the balcony of his home in Kawit, Cavite.

Initially, Philippine independence day was being commemorated every 4th of July, the day when the Philippines was granted complete independence in 1946 by the United States of America, and this was the case until 1962 when Pres. Diosdado Macapagal moved the date to June 12 in favor of Brother Emilio's 1898 proclamation.

An obelisk is a reverential monument connecting heaven and earth. It symbolizes regeneration and creation, and represents strength and stability. Thus was how Freemasons were hewn from rough stones into perfect ashlars. To remind the brethren of MD Nueva Ecija South and Aurora and all Masons of Freemasonry’s aspiration for perfection and of its mission of making good men better and uniting them into a brotherhood that aims to create a better world for everyone, Past DDGM Jebong initiated the erection of an obelisk during his incumbency.   The project however took some time and was completed when he already turned over the gavel of the District's leadership to incumbent DDGM Alfred.
