Some jurisdictions visit the candidate in his home as part of the interview.I am confused...
A Masonic Home visit?
ah.Some jurisdictions visit the candidate in his home as part of the interview.
For what reason is this visit intended?We have a requirement that an initiate coming up through the degrees must go to the masonic home in Burlington.
It's part of our constitution. Not our lodge practice.For what reason is this visit intended?

I like this. I delivered my MM proficiency soon after I was raised. I was then advised by Past Masters to wait at least six months before joining an appendant body and spend this time on Blue Lodge study. I took their advice.(d) No Master Mason, until he shall have satisfactorily passed the Master Mason examination and at least six (6) months shall have elapsed after having received his degree, as such, shall apply for or accept membership in any body, order or organization in which a prerequisite of membership is that a person (or each male member thereof) be a Master Mason. This legislation shall not apply to Masonic Clubs, Craftsmen's Clubs or Masonic Temple Associations
This is a recent addition. Probably 2014. However, you can get dispensation to waive it.I like this. I delivered my MM proficiency soon after I was raised.

Here's to hoping that this thing is over soon Brother.Maybe I will try to get to one when I'm out of the East ... and we're allowed to actually have a meeting.
