    Can you defend the light you wear?

    Red on a Masonic ring may indicate that the wearer belongs to the Grand Lodge of Scotland. The Freemason Royal Arch is also red. Red has other symbolic meanings in Freemasonry. Red is the color of blood, and therefore has associations with war, sacrifice, heroism, charity, devotion and struggle...

    Running for District Position

    Brothers, I have went through the proper channels to place my name in the running for South Carolina Jurisdiction (PHA) District I Senior Deacon. In the South Carolina Jurisdiction there are 11 districts. I am unsure of how the entire process works as this is the first time I have ran for a...

    EA's serving on committees?

    I can follow the line of thinking of wanting a new initiate to be connected early with those already in the quarry. However I think we should be caring for the initiate during this stage. The new apprentice compares to a caterpillar in terms of development. If we want more perfect butterflies...

    What happens to the rejected candidate?

    Bro. Mac can I import you to South Carolina? Matter of fact we will even throw in a house on the golf course. Seriously I envy the work that is being done by the brothers in Texas my only hope is one day the brothers of South Carolina will pick up this same spirit.

    Prince Hall Masonry has the distinct ability to embrace all of it members irregardless of race, color, creed or nationality. A man should be measured by his character and if found worthy balloted on and accepted. Prince Hall Masonry is a life style that is lived daily.The initiate finds himself...

    August Meeting

    One just left for no reason to drive trucks. The other I believe for finaces, but if he would have said he was having problems the lodge would have waived his dues. We can't fix what we don't know exists.

    August Meeting

    The JW and SW both haven't been to lodge or any other function since last year. They also have not paid any dues or returned any of the calls from the lodge brothers.

    August Meeting

    Grand Lodge Officers, Worshipful Masters, Past Masters, Wardens and Brethren, Normally my service to the craft goes without any special recognition or honor sought by myself. Anything that you do in life you should do from your heart not for self accolades. This has been a very trying year as...

    What happens to the rejected candidate?

    In honesty nobody knows how anyone votes as the ballot is secret. The dreaded blackball could come from any member of the craft during the time of the ballot.

    What happens to the rejected candidate?

    If a petition is rejected the fine in most cases will also be returned. The petitioner can reapply after 6 months to the same lodge. It should be noted that a rejected petitioner cannot be accepted in another lodge in the jurisdiction after being rejected. If the petitioner desires to petition...
