Greetings to all my loving Ark Mariners of RAM Lodge Coromandel No.18
It is a matter of great pride and satisfaction for the Southern Region that one of its senior RAM Lodges, RAM Lodge Coromandel No.18, Vijayawada, is completing 25 long years of service to Royal Ark Masonry this year. I extend my hearty congratulations to the Worshipful Commander and Brethren of RAM Lodge Coromandel No.18 on achieving this important milestone in the history of its brotherly existence. I am certain that the Silver Jubilee of this wonderful RAM Lodge will be celebrated in a most befitting manner on 3rd December 2017.
Freemasonry teaches us to build better human beings, and it is our constant duty to bring peace and happiness to our fellow beings and to unite humanity into a great bond of brotherhood. Remember that the responsibility of implementing the great objects of Freemasonry is the privilege of each one of us and that our great institution derives its strength from the personal dedication of each individual member in active and healthy participation.
Brethren, while conveying my warm greetings and good tidings to you and your families, I wish you many more years of enjoyable and purposeful Freemasonry.
With fraternal regards.

I am Glad to know that Royal Ark Mariners Lodge Coromandel No.18 had successfully and eventfully completed 25 years of its Masonic Service to the Order. It is also hearting to Note that you have planned to conduct the Silver Jubilee Celebrations of the RAM Lodge Coromandel on 3rd December, 2017 at Freemasons Hall, Vijayawada.
The vision of the Founders 25 years back to bring the Order to the beautiful city of Vijayawada is fondly remembered and appreciated. The Founder Commander and the successive Commanders of the RAM Lodge who had steered the lodge all these years with devotion and dedication is worth remembering and emulation by the younger Brethren.
I offer my Congratulations to the Worshipful Commander and the Brethren of RAM Coromandel on this momentous occasion and wish the Function and Celebrations every Success.
W.Bro. Menda Manu
Assistant Regional Grand Mark Master,

Gratitude, they say, is memory of the heart. That being so, I must confess that my heart is full. The Brethren of Royal Ark Mariners Lodge Coromandel No.18 have been truly gracious, by encouraging me in every movement.
When the decision of holding the Silver Jubilee Celebration, informed to R.W.Bro. Abraham Markos, Regional Grand Mark Master of the Regional Grand Mark Lodge of Southern India, he encouraged me and always there to fall back upon, like a rock.
Our senior Brethren shared their wisdom and our junior Brethren were willing to reach the sky. The build-up for the event was, in short, electrifying.
I am indeed extremely thankful to W.Bro. Pilla Ravi, the ruling Master of Lodge Burroughs Strange No.87, who came forward to promote this celebration by his invaluable support.
I will be failing my duty if I do not thank the contributional support of the Worshipful Masters and Brethren of Lodge Goddess Kanakadurga No.331 and Lodge Colonel Chowdary No.201.
While the success of this celebration is definitely attributable to the excellent team work and I take the entire responsibility for any lapses and seek your pardon for the same.
I wish all those, from nook and corner, attending this Silver Jubilee Celebration, very best.
