    Masters Hat

    Yuuup...Proud to have gotten to serve under 1st Cav. Even prouder to have gotten to be in the "Headhunter" Squadron, 1-9 Cav When are you going to petition? I have seen you on here for a little bit now. Just debating on whether or not to petition, or waiting the results of the lodge voting...

    Grand Lodge of the State of Israel

    Found it. Thanks a lot. I think that this is very interesting. I think that it would be pretty neat to be able to say that I am a member of a lodge in Israel, or even some other country for that matter. IF everything is good to go on recognization, the only thing I kind of cringe about is...

    Grand Lodge of the State of Israel

    I REALLY like their GL's seal. That is really neat looking. I was looking through the site, but didn't come upon the link that you are talking about. Is there anyway that you can give me a "walk through" on how to get to where it talks about affiliating?? BroBill, anyway possible you...

    Masters Hat

    I just thought bout this while driving the other day. What about a Cavalry Stetson? Ya'll think that it would be in bad taste to wear the Stetson with the yellow cord and the Cavalry insignia and crossed sabers? The hat itself fits within the rules of the hat for the master, just wondering if...

    Your Prediction: Freemasonry in 5-10 Years

    Actually, lately I have noticed a lot more younger men (I'm only 30, so I'm trying to hold on to that "young" title...lol) findng Masonry and getting interested in it. It may be just around my area, which is pretty rural, but seeing this excites me about the craft. I had the pleasure of...

    Agreed...Good luck on your journey. Very beautiful. Especially the last degree!

    A rotating Grand Lodge?

    Honestly and for the most part, I like the way that it is right now. Having its place in one location that doesn't change. Everyone knows where it is, and the only thing about it that might change is the exact dates everything is held. That being said, Brother JJones I do agree with you about...

    Hi from Pennsylvania

    Welcome to the forums! And good luck with your York Rite journey. I was glad and proud when I was finally able to take that path.

    Resolution proposals for next GL session

    Is the issue about all MMs getting a vote referring to just those that are present during GL proceedings, or are we talking about extending the right to vote to ALL MMs in the GLoT jurisdiction? If it is the latter that is what is being discussed, how would everyone get to vote and how would...

    Masonic Connection

    I know this thread has moved on past the topic of books on Masonry, but I just wanted to drop in a book recommendation real quick. If you haven't read it yet, pick up "Born in Blood" by John J. Robinson. It shows the possibility that Freemasonry as we know it today came from the Knights...

    Ideas for Scottish Rite Club President

    I appreciate all the information. It feels like the start is going to be a bit of an uphill battle when I look at the membership numbers to the club and the numbers of attendance in recent years, but thankfully I haven't gotten discouraged yet...lol Again, not saying anything to take away from...

    Ideas for Scottish Rite Club President

    Yea, that is something that I have been kicking around. Well, more than kicking around. Been talking with the past President and trying to figure out how to work something out like that. The attendance to the Club meetings have dropped dramatically (before I started attending) and that is...

    Ideas for Scottish Rite Club President

    At the last meeting for the Llano County Scottish Rite Club (out of Austin Valley), I was elected to serve as President for the club. I would really like to hear from anyone else that has been President of a Scottish Rite club (or anyone that has been a member of one) that has some ideas on how...

    Joining the York Rite

    I agree as well. I always originally wanted to go York Rite, but with being in the Army and all that jazz, it just never lined up for me. Ended up getting my Scottish Rite degrees, and then FINALLY was in the right place at the right time a few months ago and was able to go through the York...
