    Any advice for a lodge chaplain?

    Prayers are supposed to be non-sectarian, yes. Often I hear our chaplain slip, but largely it isn't an issue. I'd suggest invest in this book: http://www.amazon.com/Prayers-Chaplain-Book-Masonic/dp/1608368416 or similar one. Giving some variety and mixing some masonic context into your prayers...

    Should Lodge proceedings be posted on line?

    Back when I was taking my degrees, I was told that *I* could not announce if my degree was upcoming. Is this where that comes from I wonder?

    Congrats. Do yourself and your fellow masons a favor. Do not stop seeking light. Keep learning and improving yourself and your masonic knowledgebase and in-turn become a well-informed brother and speak to others on topics you find interesting. Spreading masonic light is getting more and more rare.

    Cypher books or mouth to ear?

    I also echo the C&C woes. It's really sad to see some openings and closings and their reliance on the book. They are illegal in C&C?

    I want to be a Free Mason

    What you are looking for is the Grande Loge du Royaume du Maroc. I cannot locate a suitable website for them however. It should be located in Casablanca. If you can contact them, they should be able to put you in contact w/ a lodge.

    GLoTX has no cipher books at all. There is however the infamous "blue book" for tx which is an unofficial cipher (and full of errors). Any cipher used in instruction is a masonic no no here. My Freemasonry HD

    Should Lodge proceedings be posted on line?

    I agree that some things could be published openly, but personally I thinks it's easier to publish nothing (that is, not publicly) rather than have to split hairs on what is and isn't appropriate. My Freemasonry HD

    Where did you get your 1st MM RIng?

    Sadly mine doesn't have a good story behind it. I bought mine on amazon. Hopefully I'll have a customs one made some day an GAOTU willing I'll give it to my son or other close person one day. Hah My Freemasonry HD

    Proficiency nerve calming

    In TX we don't have a cipher book we use so that's easy enough, as for the shot of liquor I skipped the cough syrup. Honestly I just made sure I faced away from all the eyes (even if I could feel them burning in to the back of my head) and tried to remember to breathe. nobody counts off for...

    Rules on petitioning

    Not that I've ever heard of. Although, petitioning candidates are often found making the move to come to the lodge and hang out w/ brethren and get to know them.

    Fort Worth and Dallas Reunions

    As far as I know NMJ still calls it Sublime Prince of the Royal Secret. Yah, I remember seeing it called that in older SMJ literature. I wonder when it changed.
