I’ve heard in certain jurisdictions Right Worshipful is the title for elected officers and Very Worshipful for appointed officers in the Grand line (but AFAIK we don’t use “Very Worshipful” in Texas

In Scotland, the master of a craft lodge is the Right Worshipful Master, and the Wardens are Worshipful.

Many Grand Lodges in Latin America practice Scottish Rite Masonry (even in the first 3 degrees): now I understand why they use different terms for the Lodge Master and Wardens

The simple answer is as Doug said - check your local Constitution.

Here it is Most Worshipful Grand Master.

As others have stated in PA the Grand Master and the Elected Officers are Right Worshipful. The appointed officers are simply Grand (office).
