I am always delighted to assist my nearby lodges, I serve on degree teams, from time to time.
Exactly. One of my lodges I showed up and joined their degree team, because they were close to work. Eventually they voted me an honorary membership, a status that does not exist in all jurisdictions. I recently showed up to visit a lodge and they were having a couple of second degrees. They put me in a chair for the degrees. I'll definitely be back.
The question was asked why I should keep affiliation with lodges I have long ago moved away from. In two of them I am Past Master and life/endowed member. I have no intention to ever demit. In one I am a honorary member. I don't even know the process to demit. If some day I relocate to a jurisdiction that requires me to demit to affiliate, I would be an eternal visitor. No way am I demitting for a bureaucratic reason.
