Hello Bro Marcus Go back to your Lodge Secretary Wayne and ask him for a Travel Letter. This will be stamped by GL and serve as a letter of Introduction. Ask the Lodge Sec to include your Degree Dates in that letter. @mvantuyl - if Texas opens in Third, will an EA or FC need anything special...

For sure and I certainly hope adequate coverage is in place, but insurance for the organization of Masonry not for the dependents of a murdered Freemason. We raise and give money all the time for people who really account as strangers, surely a Widow and any potential Dependents should...

This law suit is so sad and I feel for what the lodge feels and what our departed Bro thinks. That said, I feel for the family, sounds like they are looking for blame. If they have a financial need... we'll your comment is a good reminder. We have a brother get stranded interstate over...

Gee. That's such a good question and reaction. I wonder what thinking led to it and how I could follow the example. And don't respond with "experience" :)

"Cosplaying Freemasonry" made me smile.

Sorry you look at it that way. No problem, it was just a quick comment and response to a quick orignal post. I have worked for my father and with my brother (both not masons). Did it for about over 15 years. My current boss is a Freemason. I've worked with Freemasons as bosses for 6 years in...

I have not read the 10 page letter. I can guess what it says. ""More than a man. A Mason" ad campaign" - that was a great campaign that we saw from across the pond and were able to use resources from. Credit to those who put it in place and they should know it help GLs across Australia and...

What makes a mason for me is how he acts and what he says and how he says it. Nothing to do with titles, that's often about rank and not the man. I will also say this, we have several MWPGMs who I think are much better masons now than they were when they were Grand Masters. Great to see; that...

Work is work and lodge is lodge.

Here is the layout we used https://www.lodgedevotion.net/devotion-newsletter-content/editorial-educational-articles/table-lodge-ceremony-of-the-seven-toasts/table-lodge-almost-set-up...

This is a potentially interesting post. When you say "initial meeting" was it a just a first catch up or supposed to be an initiation ? Freemasons can be funny, if they think you are unreliable, they will not welcome you because it might reflect on your character. However, I know, often good men...

I am a Saint ! St Bloke of the Southern Cross ! Heheheehe...

IAOGOT = I am often guilty of that :)

The Saint Johns don't even appear in our ritual.. unless we have a table lodge.. but we borrowed that script from a lodge who borrowed from another.. and no one really knows where it comes from..

I think it will be more popular than the "new" one UGLE came up with...

I think the real wisdom comes from listening and thought and reflection. I think the Three Great Lights are something we probably should think about more.

Thanks. A lot of members don't like to see old posts revived. I have mixed feelings on it, but it does have the disadvantage of original participants often not being around anymore..

I also have an obligation to "hele, conceal and never reveal" (secrets)... but what is a secret ? For me, it mainly concerns modes of recognition. There are Easter Eggs I don't talk about, but there not really "secrets"..

For me, those positions or stages in employment are not solely about hierarchy, more importantly they are also about how you develop, what you see as important, and the corresponding behaviors you adopt. It is really only in behaviours that you can develop respect from others. but more...

Greetings and welcome !
