    Why is it so hard to get Masons to join the Commandery?

    And I should say we have some vets in Chapter, too.

    Why is it so hard to get Masons to join the Commandery?

    Well, Companion, I'm in chapter but I'm not military. We've got some vets in Blue Lodge but we're not all vets (I have never been in the military). I suspect while we are all Brothers, we might have different feelings.

    Form of Address

    I would never call anyone not active in the military by their rank though as a Kentucky Colonel I am allowed to be called "The Honourable".

    Why is it so hard to get Masons to join the Commandery?

    I belong to Chapter and am also Scottish Rite. I am also a Christian of the Episcopalian variety. What I object to when it comes to Commandery is the military aspect. I prefer to keep my Freemasonary and my Christianity separate.

    License plates... yea or nay?

    I have personalized license plates here in Maine and identify myself as a Scottish Rite Mason (NMJ) as well by having a jewel on the back of my car. We don't have Masonic vanity plates here in Maine and I don't think I'd get one even though I do have a vanity plate. If someone wants to know...

    Lodge Officer Duties - Senior Deacon

    No, it has everything. Drummonds or whatever you might have in your jurisdiction has the other parts. Very strange little book, granddads.

    Lodge Officer Duties - Senior Deacon

    I should add that my father is also a Master Mason and, as I am 32nd Degree NMJ. We were both rather surprised to find that to be the case about his father's book. My grandfather was a life-long dues paying member of a lodge near Passaic which no longer exists though did exist until his death in...

    Masonic funeral attendance

    I have been an officer of my lodge for going on three years I guess now. Unless there is anything that prevents me from attending, I show up for Masonic Funerals and the church or secular funerals for Brothers. I've been to several as an officer, in full regalia.
