Hopefully young brother you have now heard back from the lodge in which you placed your petition.

J.P Luther offers a nice selection and that is where I was going to suggest my lodge look into ordering some more in time. I may suggest the blue rope type as well.

We have both types as several have stated on here they have seen some rough times. I think the velvet slash are nice and much cheaper and should last longer IMO.

In your lodge what type or style of masonic regalia does your lodge uses for your officers. I have seen the the metal type with the velvet backing, velvet type sash with the masonic officer symbol on it, cord type with the masonic emblem attach. Which style does your lodge uses and where do you...

Just thinking did you say your father in law or dad was in the lodge you petitioned?? If so you should ask that person directly as well.

Just my opinion young brother. I think upon the next meeting night you show up and ask in person about your petition. Simply state that you are only following up and that you understand that it is some delay at times in hearing back about your petition. Ask at that point while your there if it...

Bro. Martinez that is a very good question as well. I would think that the minutes to most lodges would be open for review for another lodge. I think many times you could use them to strengthen on your weak areas and see how many lodges are conducting meetings.

This is the format in which I created.....

PM Carver thank you for your quick reply and your templates as well.. I will upload a template in which I created for my lodge but I have not yet sumbitted it for final approval.

Typically for your lodge meetings your minutes are recorded on a format which format does your lodge uses? Do you use a template or grand lodge form or did you create your own??? Examples would be great to see as well.

Well said ....Many only plot for the advancement of a title. Many should seek to do well for the lodge in any position in which they hold be that of a regular lodge member or officer. Start your work right after you are raised is what I say and that will define who and what you are all about.

Derinique any updates on your petition????

Recently my lodge has had some Grand Lecturers and Past Masters from several lodge have agreed to help our lodge out with degree work. They have also agreed to share some of their past up's and down's which I believe will help those on their way to the East. Being that I am a newly raised Mason...

I searched through all of the post and could not find the ppt for both of these programs if possible could you please send me a copy of both if you have them to staton.wayne@yahoo.com Thanks

Bro. Bowden can you tell me what A.L.L. and L.I.F.E program is all about???

Thank you for the wealth of information in which you have presented. If I may with your permission I would like to use this information within a powerpoint presentation. Bro. Staton

I agree that a phone call can often times provoke good intentions and new directions as well. I have reached out to members via email and FB oddly enough I have received good responses back. I see the issues that have been around for many years and certainly hope to see changes of this trend in...

Bro Zack Thank you for your insight and input as well. I guess the zell of being a new Mason such as myself wanting to know what can be done to bring them back. My view on it is slightly different as I see some of the inactive members are a part of the lodge history and some have great knowledge...

Fraternal Greeting Brethrens I have a question in which I believe all lodges will or have dealt with and that is inactive brothers. How does your lodge reach out to these brethren to find out why they stopped coming and what is needed to get them back in the lodge? I have asked our current WM...

My lodge meets twice a month one business and one instruction. The meeting times can range from 1-5 hours at times we tend to stay on the same subject much to long. However, I am trying to come up with a new format which details the topics of the meeting before hand and how long each speaker and...
