    Grand Lodge must be in really bad shape

    I am not opposed to that but how would you market a building like that for sale? Huge building with auditorium and seating for 5,000 but parking for only 1,000. Masonic emblems and scenery engraved on and throughout the building. No A/C or modern anything in the building. Not to mention it...

    Grand Lodge must be in really bad shape

    I have never run into that either? Wonder if it was a slip up? Either way not a really big deal it is just amplified in these times.

    Grand Lodge must be in really bad shape

    Wow they are sneaking in fees and charges everywhere. What gives man, how did we get ourselves in this corner that GL cannot even afford postage? We gotta fix this.

    Grand Lodge of Texas Codebook

    Endowed Memberships

    I like the resolution that says if you are endowed no GL dues best but would be satisfied with no the other resolution that says if endowment do not pay then the lodge does not either. I want to see Grand Lodge thrive but if I had to choose I would put as much of the financial burden on GL as I...

    2010 Annual Communication Resolutions Disscussion

    This will be interesting. I am curious about the $10 pre-register fee though? I know they have a bunch to print and it cost a ton but seems weird they require $10. I was wondering if we as lodges could do the same thing? Could a lodge charge someone who calls and pre-registers coming to your...

    Widows Sons

    That was the main thing I was wondering if it was legal or not in TX? I believe at GL 2 years ago this very group was denied recognition which I was not sure if a TX mason can legally be apart of it?

    What is Kabbalah?

    Weekly Kabbalah Tune Up September 12— 18, 2010 BRAND NEW DAY The Kabbalists say that every single day, it's as if the world was just created. That thought has two distinct but equally powerful ramifications. First, every day is a fresh start: It doesn't matter what happened...

    divine authenticity of the Holy Scriptures

    More so than built around it is the furniture of the lodge and can and never will be removed from the degree work. It is one of our richest symbols. To join our frat though it is not required to believe in a Holy Book just that you have to take an obligation on one. God holds that man binded...
