I do not want to sound like I am preaching from a soap box b/c I know it will be a diffrent path for all Lodges but commonality was found between the generation @ 148 and it was done by the 2nd liberal art of rhetoric. There generation sees Masonry one way and we see it in another but in the end...
To me we already hit rock bottom and we are now on the way out. The ritual work is slowly and painfully becoming somewhat of a priority again. The feel for a need to investigate our candidates more intently and the talk of Masonry being to cheap are all signs we are moving upward and onward...
Freemasonry can seem religous to outsiders and na sayers but when delved into you realize it uses Biblical stories and teaching to convey a form of morality, but none of them relate directly to your salvation; Freemasonry is the art of self improvement. Which if applied correctly will make good...
In my opinion carring a weapon is an awesome respoinsibility and anyway you can remind yourself to use the weapon with temperance, prudence and true justice I say go for it but if it makes you hesitate in anyway having the S&C on your firearm I would leave them off untill I felt 100% comfortable...
I have not been to enough to of my MW&S meetings to have meaningful opinoin, the few I have been to where great fellowship and an awesome venue to get to know other Masons about the 64th district. I need to get to know that asc. a little better and all they have to offer b/c as most things there...
heare is a response I got from my rep, the vote is soon if not today so contact yours if possable.
Dear Mr. Moore,
Thank you for contacting the office of State Representative Rob Orr regarding HB 132. Rep. Orr asked that I respond to you on his behalf. First, I want to make sure that...
we just started at 148 and as Brother Wyndel said the info is kindy outdated and dry so we make sure the mentor helps hit the high points which mentor program we just started also and it is working phenominally.
Nash Lodge 638 had me give the Tilers oath and it is pretty simple, and my dues card and DL, afterward I had along talk with Brother Billy Graham about some of the question that used to be asked my favorite was how many workmen completed the temple of Solomon. took me a minute but I got it.
Brother Cale, change is a rough and rugged road. I believe any Grand Lodge law should be held at all cost as these are the laws the majority of Masons in Texas wanted and if we just pick and choose as we do now chaos soon ensues. Sometimes laws are out of balance from our preceptive but if we...
Financial investment will lead someone to give something more than one go at it if they get frustrated as we all do. I was reminded that dues in 1870's were $25 which is about $700 now. My humble opinion we are way behind the curve on dues and fees in Masonry.
I guess if someone outta state or country really wanted to join we should let them but it is nice to talk TX specific Masonry with TX Brothers. We need a line of comunication to get on the same page and keep our fingers on the pulse of Masonry in the state. I think we have a great thing going...
Global warming may be a crock a figment of money imagination, I just want to drink from the river I grew up on, as I did when I was a kid. I care for the earth as a whole but my backyard is trashed with pollution and I for one would love to see Americans take a bigger rersponsibilty in taking...
