It is quite the coincidence that this forum is based out of Texas. A member of my Lodge in Nj recently moved to Texas and is currently enjoying dual membership. We see him every 3-4 months or so. He tells us that there is literally a Lodge meeting happening every night if the week because we...
Thank you, brothers, for all of your kind words following the loss of my grandmother. I loved her dearly and she is now in a much better place. I truly appreciate it. I am now certain that I made the right choice to go through with the raising. It was a magical way to end my Thursday. The...
I am excited and nervous at the same time. Tomorrow night I will be raised to the Sublime Degree of Master Mason. I've been waiting for this day since June, my Lodge goes dark for summer. Unfortunately this great moment may be overshadowed by an event early in the morning. Two days ago, my...
I have used the term "studying" when referring to the memorization work for the proficiency exams of the degrees.
In NJ, we do a lot of word of mouth, but also each candidate recieves a copy of the exam (written in cypher) for each of the Blue Lodge degrees. NJ also provides each candidate with...
The candidate instructors wanted the new FCs in our Lodge to see the first two degrees, but most lodges around here are entering the dark months. When we come back in September, we will be preparing for MM in the first week of October. Under these circumstances, it seems I will not get to watch...
Thank you guys for the advice. I used a combination of both methods mentioned above. I practiced in front of the mirror before going to the Lodge. Once I was standing in the East, I convinced myself that we down in the Fellowcraft Club's room and that the WM behind the examiner was just the...
I am truly excited. It seems like just yesterday I was being initiated, now tonight, I will going to recieve the Fellowcraft Degree. It is amazing how quickly a month can fly by. I am confident that I have the EA exam down pat! I just hope I don't lose my train of thought in front of an open...
Awesome! I attended a few east coast tourneys and was at Meadowlands every year through H2 and H3. Was just starting to finally appreciate H4 when my xbox stopped recognizing discs in the disc drive. Gotta get a new one soon. Ill probably wait until after my MM in September so I don't cause...
Congratulations brother! I myself am going for my FC in four more short days. Feels like just yesterday I was being initiated. Have fun but pay attention to your instructors. This next month will fly by for you.

Widows Son, that is a really cool story. You are living proof to the anti-Masonics of the world that if they really knew the truth, they would know how wrong they are. So many people are content with thier own ignorance and make no effort to educate themselves on such topics. I am certain that...
I was renting a room in a house and we had a new gentleman move into the premises. I quickly became good friends with this man. Over time, I grew to look up to him as almost a second father. One day we were watching a documentary on the Freemasons and he was calling BS on every other word the...
Probably because according to scripture, Jesus never wanted anyone to be his "Ambassador." That makes those who claim to be such jackasses by default, on the basis that they have no idea what they think they're talking about. It's just like how when non-Masons claim to know all of the secrets of...
Hmmm...I realize I'm still very new to the Brotherhood...but....I definately haven't been instructed in this part of Masonry yet. Nor have I seen any children or crackheads or welding tools at the Lodge. But of course, if someone says it then it must be true, right? We should stop him from...
