Grand Lodge of Ky and Most Worshipful Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Ky now have visitation

Today, The Grand Lodge of Kentucky, upon request of The Most Worshipful Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Kentucky, voted to allow visitation between the subordinate bodies of each organization. A grand day, indeed!
Just occured to me....has the Kentucky PH Grand Lodge voted to allow this also?

"upon request of The Most Worshipful Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Kentucky"
Seems unlikely to me that they would request it without knowing the will of the Brethren...
You couldn't have visitation unless both grand lodges agree to it. So they likely had already approved it. Not to mention that there was already recognition without visitation.
Did some checking with a brother last night. The Kentucky PH Grand Lodge had previously approved this measure. Therefore, visitation and Masonic communication between us is now in effect. A great day for Masonry in Kentucky!!!!

An older gentleman told me in order for the last few GLS to get on board, it's going to take some Masonic Funerals. I don't believe PHGL of TN or GL of TN has every tried to gain recognition with each other let alone discuss visitation. The quote on both sides has always been "Their clandestine"

Sadly, this is not only true for GLs and PH GLs but individual lodges as well. I'm sure that some lodges on both side of the spectrum will not like these new developments. However, I'm sure that these will be in the minority and they will just have to get used to it.

Last time I checked GLSC was still spouting the "sovereign jurisdiction" line. As long as that barrier stands there will be no recognition.
