I would say to take them with you to masonic family events so that way they can ask questions about what's going on and you then could start the conversation about being a mason.

That's a good idea to get my sons involved!! I've been wondering how one goes about gettig family interested wihout actually asking them to be. Obviously you know but maybe other newbies don't, I can't ask them once I'm initiated, lol.

They cashed my check.. I don't know if that means anything, lol.

If the ballot is negative the check is returned. It means you passed the ballot.

Keep showing up at the building an hour before the monthly meeting. They should inform you sooner than the next meeting but some lodges are good about the paperwork some aren't.

That eases my mind a little. I don't what has made me more nervous... waiting for the interveiws or waiting for the ballot, lol.

Isn't it though!! The said each state has it own "governing body" but you don't realize it until you meet people from other places.

It's very easy to think the way it's done locally is standard. Often it's not. Dry lodges? Not world wide. Business in third degree? Not world wide. Not charging EA/FC dues? Not world wide.

I can understand charging EA/FC dues. What if it takes a year or two for them to go through the degrees? I'm sure there is overhead cost at the lidge and the GL for them to be in on the books.
