    Let's not forget

    P.S., In regards to the article about appearing in public. I was referring to a ceremony this memorial day, where local fraternities and charities all took part in the laying of wreath on the tomb in the Veterans cemetery.

    Let's not forget

    Perhaps, but I seriously doubt it. I have seen maybe a handful of Mason's out in public, identifying themselves as Mason's in the last few years. Im not saying to walk around in recruiting mode or wearing aprons, rings, hats or adorning their cars with stickers. I'm saying that its disappointing...

    Let's not forget

    I spent the majority of this memorial day, attending ceremonies at cemeteries and veterans organizations, in honor of our veterans. I saw Knights of Columbus, Rotarian's, American Legion, VFW, DAV and a bunch of others.But one thing I didn't see, was a single FREEMASON. How is it, that the one...

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

    I am very interested in joining. However, as a master mason, I have to admit great disappointment in what I have seen as far as participation by my Brothers. I can only assume, that it is the same in the commandery. I feel that masons should be dedicated to the betterment of mankind and...

    Masonic Networking, Right or Wrong to do?

    We have probably all ran into the guy who wants to be a mason, just to get ahead in life. Im still not sure how that works, because I have never progressed at anything, simply because Im a mason. But anyway, I would like to know what opinions there are out there about Masons helping masons. I...

    Grand Lodge of Texas Codebook

    Personally, as a disabled Vet, with some pretty substantial memory problems, Im kinda leaning towards the codebook. Some guys do need a little help and isnt that what we are about? helping our brothers?

    Poll: Masonic Member Retention

    I have been approached by quite a few young men about Feemasonry and they always reference the Television shows. They all seem to at least want to believe, that Freemasons actually do run the world and that we have the inside track on everything. I have met alot of fellows , who went through the...

    When can I call myself a Mason?

    Im kinda in the same boat with you. My next question is, If a Bro. leaves the lodge because of non-payment of his dues, is he still considered a mason? So guys, me included, have had some pretty hard financial woe's. I have my own opinion, but I always like to hear others

    When can I call myself a Mason?

    I already know the answer to this, but I have been running into some fellows who seem to rejoice in getting ahead of themselves. So, I would appreciate it if some of the older, wiser and more informed Brothers would answer the question for those who are reading the post's. I know several entered...

    Masonry's Offering

    well I can only say that it offers me a place with which to redeem myself on one certain level. I should have cleared that up. In my humble opinion, full redemption can only be recieved through faith in GOD and living as he commands. But, I believe that freemasonry offers a chance to practice...

    Does your lodge have any programs to bring inactive Masons, back into Freemasonry?

    Re: Does your lodge have any programs to bring inactive Masons, back into Freemasonry Id like to find out about that myself. My father is Scottish Rite, but had to demit due to his job as a trucker. He felt it was the right thing to do as he rarely ever was home and could not attend lodge. Now...

    FREEMASONRY ? whats that?

    When I was a boy growing up on a farm, we would come to town a couple of times a week to get supplies. We always passed the lodge as it was on the main street of the town we lived nearest to. My Pa wasnt a mason back then and I used to grill him about it. He would say to me, "I really dont know...

    Have you ever been "burned out" with Freemasonry?

    Yes very badly. I bacame a mason for many reasons which are between me and GOD, but one reason was to help my community and try to improve the world around me. So far, I have attended lodge in many different places and found very little enthusiasm towards anything more than having snacks after...

    Killeen, texas

    :SNC: Hello to everyone from Killeen, Texas. I have lived here since 1991, but I have been on the road so to speak as an aircraft mechanic. I am trying very hard to change careers and do something that will allow me to have a more normal sort of life. GOD Bless!
