As many of you know we at MoT have taken a role as educators on the relationship between the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Texas, AF&AM (GLoTx) and the Most Worshipful Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Texas, F&AM (PHGLoTx). We have made many posts to help understand the role of the GLoTx and how we can interact with PHGLoTx members. We have even went through great links to obtain and distribute copies of the compact that was signed between the two Grand Lodges in 2007 declaring both as regular and sharing the same territorial jurisdiction in the state of Texas.
We are now confident enough with information obtained by a member of credible position, who for obvious reasons will not be disclosed, that the GLoTx has received a request for FULL recognition to include visitation. Several staff members have contacted the Grand Secretary’s office via email to officially confirm this information and have failed to get a response. A member of out staff will be making a trip to Waco next week to confirm this in person but until then this must still be considered “rumor” because we will not disclose the source.
We hope to follow up with an official statement by the Grand Secretary or a member of the Fraternal Relations Committee but please do not expect too much. It has been the experience on this subject that an official response is difficult to obtain. This is a very delicate situation and will be handled as such. We are very proud of our members and friends that have worked behind the scenes to get this information for us.
Going forward, I challenge each member of MoT to educate yourself with PHGLoTx and visit a public function, such as a BBQ or fundraiser, of the nearest PH Lodge. If you do not know how to get in touch with the Local Lodge or would like to locate a PH Function please contact myself or use the “Contact Us” at the top of your main screen and we will get you the needed information. I promise you that this will be an experience like no other and you will never forget it.
Lastly please know that in our efforts there will be people with personal objection that will try to stop this history changing event but it is our duty to educate those who are willing to learn on the values of having a relationship with such good and great of men as ALL REGULAR MASONS in Texas. Please if during your personal path you come across someone with these personal motives please for the zeal of the institution do not argue with ignorance. In the end peace, harmony, and justice will always prevail.
Thanks for your continued support.
