Welcome Brothers! | Regular Communication, the first Thursday of the month from September through June

AMBASSADOR’S CORNER

By Brother Donald Spradlin

OPEN HOUSE & MyCHIP's MARCH 27th

Brethren:

Your Ambassador Team Bro John McIntyre III, Bro Jonah McCall, Bro Sean Guilfoyle, and yours truly, need your help in supporting two very important events that are taking place at the Lodge on Saturday March 27th from 9:00AM to 3:00PM. Food and refreshments will be served all day.

Please drop by and spend some time with fellow Brothers. Even better, bring a friend or family member who would like to learn more about Freemasonry and witness Phoenix Lodge in action as we video tape children as part of the Child Identification Program.

Having these two events run simultaneously is a win for the Hanover Community , for Freemasonry, and for Phoenix Lodge. One hundred or more people may enter our door that have never set foot in a Masonic Lodge. What an opportunity for new membership! Special thanks to Wor. Larry for the lovely card!

Operative masons in ancient times received wages that were outward and material.

The Free and Accepted Mason, on the other hand; performs a moral work,

hence his reward is interior and spiritual.

Dictionary of Freemasonry

Of BEHAVIOUR - In the LODGE while CONSTITUTED.

You are not to hold private Committees, or separate Conversation without Leave from the Master, nor to talk of anything impertinent or unseemly, nor interrupt the Master or Wardens, or any Brother speaking to the Master: Nor behave yourself ludicrously or jestingly while the Lodge is engaged in what is serious and solemn; nor use any unbecoming Language upon any Pretense whatsoever; but to pay due Reverence to your Master, Wardens, and Fellows, and put them to Worship.
If any Complaint be brought, the Brother found guilty shall stand to the Award and Determination of the Lodge, who are the proper and competent Judges of all such Controversies (unless you carry it by Appeal to the Grand Lodge), and to whom they ought to be referr'd, unless a Lord's Work be hinder’d the meanwhile, in which Case a particular Reference may be made; but you must never go to Law about what concerneth Masonry, without an absolute necessity apparent to the Lodge.
