Excellent information Bro. Mac. I'm working on establishing a Master Craftsman Study Group in my county. I'll work on the CoC myself... It will be a lot of work just to get the MC Study Group up and running.

LOL... my first read was: 'Hunting for Skaters'.

I'm sorry brother, but I have no idea what you're asking.

Got my book and test in the mail yesterday. What a book!

Re: Captin's Mast It's a different mindset these days. No one hold's them accountable anymore. How did you happen across a Captain's Mast?

THAT is funny! What a great story.

Thestoat - I'm interested in seeing what you have available. Please PM me at your convenience. I'm sorry to hear that you're going through such a rough patch. I pray that everything works out for you... Bro. Bennett - If you don't mind, please keep me in the loop on this one. Maybe we...

Jerry - The quickest way to get all the basic-level info you need is to check out the Scottish Rite, Southern Jurisdiction website (www.scottishrite.org). Another good page is the Valley of Jacksonville website (www.aasrvalleyofjax.org). I think a lot of you questions will be answered...

Got it. That's what I thought!

It's true... The Civil War just isn't that big of a deal in the North. Growing up, I never really gave it much attention. We talked about it in school. "The South broke away from the Union because they didn't want to free the slaves." Years later, with a B.A. in Military History, I know THAT...

I didn't read through all the posts in this thread, so I may be repeating what's already been said. I think the premise of the question is wrong. Religion is integral to Freemasonry. This becomes very apparent once you explore the Scottish and York Rites. As for the implied question - I...

"the 4 letters"? I've never heard that before. What does that mean?

Here's what get's me about my Valley: The pyramid is ~$30. The 10K plated ring is $40. If we STOPPED BUYING A PYRAMID NOBODY WANTS and saved $10 somewhere else - we could give all the candidates a ring. /sigh...

I received my Lodge Of Perfection book yesterday. I'm going to try to do a degree per day. How is the program so far?

Lafayette #83, 4th Masonic District, GL of NC.

GLoNC finally recognized PHM last year. In my Masonic experience, the brethren in PHM are some of the most enthusiastic and learned Freemasons I have ever met. Unfortunately, PHM is a target for MANY, MANY bogus African-American Grand Lodges. There are 16 bogus GLs in Texas...

Ordered MC1 today, and I'm trying to get a MC study group started in my county.

My lodge is pretty active: States Communications 1st and 3rd Tuesday; Emergent Communications 2nd and 4th (as required). Our Stated Comms usually run about 1:15 - 1:30. We pass all the info for upcoming events, talk about what's new at other lodges (5 total in the county). Heck, the...

I just rooted my Droid X. Other than being able to install a pre-release version of Gingerbread (Android 2.3), I am still looking for the great benefit... To be honest, it was fine w/out being rooted. Oh - I guess I can tether now... not that I've ever needed to do that before.

Wow - what a coincidence. I recently discovered that my 5x great-grand father was a Captain in the Maryland militia at Valley Forge. As far as I can tell, I'm the first Mason on either side of my families. However, I only dicovered my mother's line last week, so I don't know...
