Mr Pierce,
The Grand Lodge of Florida does not recognize ANY (PHA) Lodges or their affiliates, nor can you be a member in both at the same time. They are all considered to be Clandestine no matter what state they are from. This doesn't mean you can't acknowledge them, but you can't attend any...
Brother,
To my knowledge the only Knights in Masonry are from the appended body KnightsTemplar, which you can't join until after becoming a Master Mason. If you're interested I'm sure there are Brothers in your Lodge that are affiliated with this Order. Remember all you have to do is ask...
From one "Corky" to another:
My Dad was never a Mason, but I wished he had been. We skipped a generation for some reason. Grand Dad and Great uncles were.
That was both heartfelt and amazing!
I'm sure your Dad is so very proud of all you've done in your life. Though you started late in life...

I congratulate you for making the effort to follow your heart (inner self), and putting yourself out there for review by the Brethren of your chosen Lodge.

I would recommend you go to the Grand Lodge of Florida home page at: glflamason.org and use the lodge locator. Just put in the city in Broward County closest to you, it will give you a list of Lodges in the area for you to see which is closest to you. Call the number for that Lodge, or visit...
Brothers All,
We as Masons should never let politics enter into any of our Masonic decisions regarding the Fraternity, which is what it appears our society has turned this subject matter into. As said previously by several of the participants here, "gay marriage" or other legislative acts can...
My dear friend lowcarbjc,
There have been many notable Inventors and men of the arts that were Masons. To name just a few Brothers, there was: Benjamin Franklin (scientist/ writer/ entrepreneur/ politician), Buzz Aldrin, Jim Irwin, John Glenn (American astronauts/ pilot/ scientist), Wolfgang...
To my Brethren,
As a child of 6 or 7, I asked my Great Uncle Milford what kind of ring he was wearing? He let me hold it, and said it was a Masonic ring and that he was a Mason. When I asked him what that meant, he said, " he belonged to a group of men that took care of children and other...
