Mr. Colas you ask a lot of good questions. My Senior Warden told me some of the things that they will investigate. I know I've left you hanging but I will switch gears and say be patient. If you are married, then let your wife know that you petitioned a lodge. The reason being it is a time...
I'm just a FC and still learning. I await to see what some of the seasoned brothers will say. However, that goes beyond being a mason it comes down to personal integrity and what values you stand for. As a member of a historically black Greek organization, I have heard stories of how we and...
I agree with dfreybur, that is how I learned my first 2 with my CT but also when I was driving and even at work. You will learn to recite it when know one is listening but also read and reread the lecture. If you get a chance to read the entire initiation it will open your eyes. Our SW had us do...
Are you the only one in your ct or is it others. If it is others then you all should be studying together. Furthermore don't try to memorize but learn it. Understand the meaning behind what u are learning. Ask older brothers in your lodge.
Re: Visitation Between Prince Hall and Regular Lod
I believe if we look north to Oklahoma we can see that you can move towards visitation. I will let you read the link. It might have been posted before but it is new to me and probably some others. There is visitation between both lodges...
My advise is to study your lecture, especially the obligation. Any questions you have ask your sponsor or SW. Other then that, reflect over the lecture and welcome to the craft. You are now apart of a rich history and brotherhood.

As a FC who has just completed his 2nd proficiency I can not see myself going through a one day class for all 3 degrees. There is so much to soak in and to digest that I enjoyed taking time to talk with the SW to really understand what was happening. Plus I have gained new brothers in this...
Brethren I passed my proficiency along with others in my CT. The date has been set for our raising. Over the following days I'm reflecting over the 1st and 2nd lectures and looking forward to that night with my CT.
Re: Looking forward to my Entered Apprentice Degre
Congratulations, one more day I know that you are counting down. lol. Even know I remember the anxiousness that I felt along with my cable tow as we waited that first night in the lodge...
Nick I would say be cool. Let your lodge guide you over the next few weeks. I would say do not read anything pertaining to the initiation into the 1st degree. That night will be eye opening memorable. Just know that in November you will begin a journey...
Greetings Brethren,
I know this question has been probably asked before, but which one did you choose to go first and why, York or Scottish Rite? I am a newly passed FC and as I study for my proficiency, this is question popped into my mind?
Thanks,

As a recently passed FC I found this thread interesting. Getting a tattoo is probably one of the last things on my mind as I along with my ct study for our proficiency exam. As I read through the various responses and even his own initial posting one question comes to mind. "What did the...
Guillermo I am a Christian and I just passed to the FC. You will read in some of the threads from other Christians on how what we are learrning/learned in masonry has strengthen our walk with Christ. For me somethings really began to click and in other areas it provided and new refreshing look...
Greetings and salutations,
I am new to this site and I was just passed on 9/27. I look forward to learning from everyone and sharing those "aha!" moments when reflecting on the lectures.
