Brethren, Wharton Lodge #621 is hosting an outdoor master mason's degree on June 18, 2011, which we would like to have performed by FMRC members. This will be our third FMRC outdoor degree. If you haven't been to one before, you need to attend. We will perform the degree and afterwards have bbq...

Good advise...Also, inform him as to what we expect from him. Tell him this is not easy by no means, but it is worth it. Share with him the difficulties of being a mason, as far as ALWAYS representing the craft, never bringing dishonor to our fraternity, and watch his reaction. Make sure he...

Wow...I knew someone that got their oil changed at E-Z Lube and they forgot to tighten the oil filter and two days later it fell off, drained all the oil and seized the motor. He took pictures called E-Z Lube and they replaced the motor no questions asked...The only problem he had was they...

Awesome!!! Great detail work.

I think that we all agree that some lodges must raise dues, where other have no need to. I also think that we all agree that regardless of the dues we pay, we as an organization must get out in the public eye more, we must find a way to retain our membership, we must find a way to get new...

I'd rather have the cold of winter...There is only so much clothes you can take off to cool down, but you can always keep adding if you have to.

If a lodge is hurting and the only way out of a hard situation is to raise the dues, then by all means raise the dues, but to raise the dues of all lodges simply because Masonry is cheap seems to me to limit our membership to strictly the upper class. And like every mason knows, there are great...

Congratulations Swole!!! The best advise I can give you is surround yourself with experienced and well informed Brethren...And don't be afraid to ask questions and speak your mind.

I couldn't agree more. Masonry cannot be allowed to measure a man's worth by the amount of money he makes. We are all on the level, and to raise the dues to $200-$300 would be intentionally removing good masons who cannot afford that type of dues increase. To say that Masonry is too cheap is...

It's not masonic, but my next one will be...Looks familiar doesn't it...Same as my profile picture, just on my bike.

Brethren, we all seem to have very good ideas...Let's just hope someone from Grand Lodge reads this and takes them under consideration.

I like that...I might have to print this out and give copies to any boy that my daughter tries to date.

I completely agree with you Bro. Ashton. I'm in no way saying that the best idea is to sell the Grand Lodge Building, but that is one possible solution that could have it's benefits. I think that it is up to our leadership to find a solution to this problem other than raising our per capita...

I think that would be a great idea, because it would allow a lot of lodges who never even send anyone to the Grand Communication to have the event closer to home occasionally. I know that there is no excuse for not sending someone in your lodge to GL, but many lodges don't due to the distance...
