ok, i don't know anyone right off hand out there. if it was me, i'd contact the district deputy and ask for a follow up. http://mwphglcal.org may have more contacts.

I have conducted healings for those who knew all their materials. What i did was compared the ritual they used to ours, and if it was acceptable, I based their proficiency on that ritual. I've also encountered people who weren't proficient, so I had them start over. I'd prefer that everyone...

Even if they're successful, they're still clandestine. People are people, and some of them aren't professional, even with PHA. Where are you located?

I am a Past Master of Bayou City # 228 in Houston. PM me if anyone else needs info about PHA in Houston.

Prince Hall AFFILIATED is what to look for. PHA for short. It's that simple. Freemason Connect Mobile

i'm not aware of any state with more than one PHA Grand Lodge. Brother Jones noted the 2 states with different names; other than those, what confusion is there?

the doctrine would have been fine if racism had not overtaken freemasonry. if there's a grand lodge formed because people were denied due to their race or religion or anything of that nature, then they too must be recognized and allowed to share the territory due to the mistakes made. today...

Oh yeah, 10 here, too. Freemason Connect Mobile

Gotcha, that makes sense. But, did UGLE approach US lodges, or vice versa? Freemason Connect Mobile

And I've suspected that its only that way because the "mainstream" lodges went to repair the relationship with UGLE before prince hall lodges did. I wonder If PHA had restored recognition from England before "mainstream", would they have to repair their relationships with PHA before UGLE would...

They can't put you on Masonic probation because that is not something masons do. We have very specific rules that we follow. If I may ask, what's the rush? Freemason Connect Mobile

You're welcome, glad I could assist. Will.

In America, none that I'm aware of. All the PHA grand lodges are established. Perhaps in another country where there are no PHA GLs, a mainstream GL can charter a lodge of African Americans, and if the mainstream GL is 4 letter, then the subordinate lodge would be also. That's the only scenario...

Hello Brother Kyle, what i meant was, there are both F&AM and AF&AM Grand Lodges here in America for the Mainstream Brethren. as far as I know, there is no difference in legitimacy or recognition based solely on 3 or 4 letter designations for Mainstream. for african-american freemasonry, there...

well done, Brother Jones! if i may be so bold as to offer a second cliff's notes version, similar to Mr. Graham- there seems to be no difference today amongst the "mainstream" Brethren. amongst Black Masons, AF&AM is clandestine, and F&AM (PHA) is regular. But criminals are clever, and...

correct, we have recognized EACH OTHER. i think we're one of the few states that has that awkward "partial recognition" without visitation. it seems to be a southern thing. for example, we have full recognition with the Grand Lodge of California, so i could go there & visit, but not here at...

There is only ONE legitimate charter for African Americans in America, and that's the PHA charter. If there's a Black AF&AM Mason from a tx lodge, and he's not from Grand Lodge of Texas, he is clandestine.

I believe the 3&4 letter is only an issue amongst Black Masons. We know that it means nothing amongst the White Masons, as that rift was healed back in England many years ago. For Blacks, 4 letter (Black Mason) indicates a clandestine Mason. ALL Prince Hall lodges are originally F&AM. When...

I work in entertainment, and I've questioned many people close to jay z and verified that he is not a Freemason of any form. They're just using whatever seems cool or marketing purposes, just like hip hop has frequently used military insignia jut for the looks.
