I enjoy your enthusiasm. Just remember you only get to go through the Degrees one time. Sadly the FC Degree doesn't get the attention as the others. Enjoy being a FC there's a lot to learn in this Degree.
The GLOT should require Lodges to observe March 2nd. How come there wasn't a big announcement about Washington on the Brazos gathering? I think every year when this day is a work day, I plan to take off.
How come fat Tuesday is a state holiday in Louisana, but today is not a holiday in Texas?
What I would like to see is try to keep the Festivals from looking and feeling like a stampede at a cattle auction. It has become like a double edged sword, it's good to see the number of canidates increase, but there seems to be a loss of that personal touch that comes when a canidate is...
When I started visiting Lodge ( I am now a member of ), I was introduced as a visitor the first two times and after that I was told that I should make myself at home. After that I never was introduced as a visitor. that really made me feel like I was AT home. I then asked for dual membership...
Peace and Harmony being the ...
My question is how come I have never read or heard PH Masons want to merge? Has anyone ever asked PH if they would like to become one? Personally I don't think it has anything to do with racism. Maybe the teachings are different enough that some of the meanings...
WOW!!! I remember when I had to answer why I wanted to become a Mason. I found it very hard to give the "correct" answer. So my answer was, there's something about Masonry I can't explain, but I know it's good and want to be part of it.
Words cannot say how glad I am Mason.
This past Thursday 02/04/2010, We raised a Brother who is 18 yrs 5 months 9 days old. He is the Lodge's youngest Mason. I wonder if he could the youngest Texas Mason?
I know the argument is smoking pot isn't any worse than drinking, maybe so, but it is an ILLEGAL drug. What will it be like when the next generation decide? Do think maybe the weekend crack smoker will be alowed in? The West gate is heavily guarded for a reason. We are to only allow the ones...
Maybe our definition of crimes have changed to some over time. The definition of Masonry hasn't changed for me for almost 20 years. Masonry should never be copromised. The laws and by laws, rituals, and obligations were created to preserve Masonry beyond many lifetimes. I feel that we (Masons)...
If a Brother is covicted of a felony is automatically suspended, should we try to look at a petitioner of the Lodge through the same eyes? He would automatically be not worthy of the Degrees of Masonry.
Not to sound like a hardcore, but if we are not to allow any man with a felony to become a part of our fraternity, then that's the way it is. I don't like the idea that a felony can be overlooked because it was a long time ago, wrong place, wrong time, etc. small exceptions today can turn into...
