Or have you seen your lodge give a new MM his first ring. No i don't expect for the lodge i want to join to buy me a ring just curious if y'all ever seen it done
If the new brother has family in the Lodge, I could see it happening. I didn't get a ring, but several brothers have handed down various pins and tie tacks to me.
Right after I was raised the brother that taught me all my language asked me if I had a ring yet. I replied I was going to order one. He immediately took off his ring and told me to wear his until mine came in. I returned it a week later when my ring arrived but that one act meant the world to me and the memory is fresh in my mind.
God bless you Ernie Beck and I wish you well always.
My stepdad and a few uncles were in\at my degree and my uncle presented me with a ring. I could not wear it without having it sized to fit me, but it was a gesture I will never forget.
I got my brother in law his first Masonic ring...he is the one that sponsored my membership and he didn't have one yet so out of respect and gratitude I bought him his...he must like it because he is wearing it every time I see him lol.
