I found out that I am not the only one to apply to my local Lodge. They also had a middle aged gentleman apply and when he did, he was asked about his previous history. He informed them that he has been a Past Master of 4 Blue Lodges. He has his 32nd in SR and is a member of Shriners and other...
Don't know exactly why but I call my car, my phone, computer and just about anything else that's had no real gender a "she".
"My car, she's playing up"
"I love my phone, she's great"
I went and had a tour of my local lodge last night and now the count down is on until I join your brotherhood. Nov 25th is the set date (122 days to go)
It feels like such a long time but I was asked to come for supper at each meeting between now and then. I was also asked to bring my family to...

I am faced with similar issues. The thing that I did was to look at the history (not myth) behind why the church forbids its members to even talk with masons.
Freemason for dummies is an awesome book that delves into the history of issue.
On a side note, I refused to read the pages on the...
I am yet to become a mason, but I am seeking to do this. I have approached the GL in Victoria Australia and look forward to the journey ahead.
I guess I have a different view as I'm the one on the outside, the one that has many reasons in becoming a mason and for me it's about being part of a...
Hi gents, just introducing myself.
My name is Darren and I'm from Melbourne Australia. I have always had an interest in Freemasonry that was sparked by my Grandfathers brother many years ago. I admired him for many reasons that can be related back to his passion for his fraternity that he...
