How did I miss that nomination. I bet I know of a few PM and a lodge that might support that nomination :D. Do I have to be a PM to second it?

I'm the no vote. :D The basis of Masonry is based in religion. Some will refer to it as spirituality others as religion but it has the same basis. Now I do not think we should discuss a type of religion. It is the specific religion that is considered divisive and not "religion" itself.

This came across the Grand Lodges Facebook today. http://www.grandlodgeoftexas.org/pdf/forms/funeral_guide.pdf Lewisville lodge did a awesome job.

"The Grand Master, working with the Public Relations Committee, publishes a monthly e-Mason electronic newsletter. The e-Mason is normally published in six versions, one localized for each of the six geographic areas of the state, Metroeast, Metrowest, Northeast, Northwest, Southeast and...

Congratulations on joining the "That isn't how I have it" club, in the near future. :001_tongue:

Thank you picked that up and a couple other items too.

I should be in Waco on Wednesday and I may have to drop by and snag a copy of this and also a copy of "Masonry for the Texas Mason's Lady" (thanks Brother Lins). Brother Ashton what was the cost on the cd?

I will be more then willing to send you a copy. However I had one of our PM contact Grand lodge(he was asking a question already) for a pdf version of the grand law and it wasn't availible as of a month ago. I need to call them again and see if it is now availible.

One of the many things I've been looking at putting togather for new MM is a CD. The CD will have a electronic Petitions (Blue Lodge, Scottish rite, York Rite, and Shriners), Lodge Bylaws, Grand Lodge laws, and the ALL program. Hopefully as time goes on I can add somethings to this but that is...

A bit off topic I had a interesting conversation in the past week with a Brother. He commented that in the 70's "ring jobs" were a common thing. I was a bit perplexed and he went on to explain that if you were a Mason you would receive preferential treatment over better qualified person...

You also have to realize that Jay-Z has been hammered over Masonry for a while. I've never confirmed whether he is or is not a Mason, however you listen to the song and somebody associated with that song was a mason or has done alot of research. To me parts of the song are offensive but...

There are alot of things on the internet, without seeing the video I'd prefer not to comment on it. I'll use this link as an example. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4oFeKJKoaKc - by Howie Damon I have no issue with this and if he makes money to recoup his cost and also makes some money...

Let me get this straight 103K memberships are out there. Expected 90K actual members when plural memberships are excluded. So 50K members decided to get a single plate for one of their cars. That is 1 million in revenue. Why do we have a budget problem?

I selected "Don't hide but don't advertise", If I'm out with friends watching a movie or generally out and about I will wear a hat. I happen to be very political, and very busy working on my companies so I tend to not wear anything masonic in those circles. Even after hours gatherings that...

First and foremost I congratulate you, my brother. The journey you have embarked on has just started, it shall impact you in ways that you have never foreseen in good and positive ways. I have been blessed by having brothers who can converse about any topic, whether in agreement or not, in a...

Good Morning and Welcome to the boards! Are you near Barretos it is a suburb of Sao Paulo? If so da Casa do Maçom João Baroni, em Barretos-SP is in that vicinity and I would love to see some more photos of this building. Not sure that it is open to people or if it is closed. The House of...

Perhaps by spending some money on the building and promoting it as a place in the community for events we could increase revenue, awareness, and general well being. While doing this we can also send out a email saying this event is being held at Grand Lodge and if any of the members would like...

Ahh listen, enjoy, and remember you are embarking upon a life long journey. Congratulations!

Well I guess this shows my ignorance. :( Why do we not have AC?

I don't see the advertising revenue for the magazine, did I miss it? If we are breaking even on the advertising vs. cost I don't care. Don't get me wrong I think we could have a much better magazine but cost vs revenue is what should matter if we are advertising in it. The way I read the...
