You wouldn't happen to have any additional information regarding this, would you?

From the Grand Lodge of Illinois: Thanksgiving Degree - Each year, Robinson Masonic Lodge #250 conducts a MM Degree on the morning of Thanksgiving. Outdoor Degree - Every few years, the Widows Sons (Masonic Motorcycle Association) hold an outdoor degree. Colonial Degree - Occasionally, there is...

I don't believe that the request is that you perform non-Christian prayers, really. I would have interpreted it more as "could you expose us to the ideologies behind prayers and proverbs we may not be familiar with?" An example that comes to mind in the form of a Jewish proverb -- "I ask not...

I have added the information to the list. Thank you for the information!

I cleaned up the OP a little, and I also thought I'd add the following in this post (not being added to the OP): Regarding the Red Degrees -- The Grand Lodge of Georgia has invited Brothers from Louisiana to Georgia to perform some of their Red Degree work. This is happening in Macon, Georgia...

Added the information for Eblen's Cave Degree in Tennessee as provided by Worshipful Brother jeffself. The formatting is getting really messed up where line breaks are concerned. I'll try and clean the OP up at some point soon.

Yeah, I noticed that. I certainly will if I'm ever able to visit the area again (a lot of family is still there, but it's difficult to get time away from work). Thanks!
