I suspect that you are connoisseur of fine German handguns.

My previous account aged out a few years ago. Joined again last yr. Getting mixed messages about whether to join as a paid member from GD. Still on the fence.

I was raised March 2001 in Panther City 1183.

Family line of Master Masons for generations. Still trying to do a family search to track them down.

This is my great grandfather, Thomas Evans from Cushing, OK. He spent his life doing craft work and teaching newcomers. He was the greatest man I've known and walked the walk.

I have not been involved since 2001 but it's been heavy on my heart for years. I'm just currently over subscribed in county party work trying to save our country as a precinct chair and VDR.

Those old Templar frock coats look good. But I’m glad I don’t have to wear one.

I know it’s Commandery. I was just saying that few jurisdictions still wear frock coats. Wisconsin’s uniform is a two or three button jacket.

Glad to see I’m not the only one who’s been off the Arfcom radar for a while.  I’ve been a member here since 2001 (actually a little before with a different name which I changed due to a typo), but it’s been a bit since I’ve browsed the forums or participated - just got busy doing things in the world.

In any case, I was raised in Pemberville Lodge (GL Ohio F&AM) in 2001, then proceeded to join the York and Scottish Rites and jumped promptly into line in… everything.

I received the KYCH around 2012, finished Scottish Rite line in 2017, 33rd degree in 2019.

I served as secretary of Ohio College SRICF for roughly 10 years and spend 2 years as Secretary General for High Council SRICF.   Took a little break after that, needed to step away from the politics for a while.

Still proud of my affiliation with the fraternity and value the times and friends I made.

Howdy brothers.

Palestine Lodge #189, Catonsville, MD.

Raised 3/10/16 in the 125th year of our Lodge.

Been a Junior and Senior Steward, Junior Deacon, and stepped out of that into 2 years as lodge treasurer.

I haven't been active in the past few years due to some drama created by a couple brothers but still pay my dues and hold fast to my obligations. Unfortunately that was a common theme amongst several of us formerly active members with regards to these few rotten apples. Doesn't sour me on Masonry, but I will not sit in Lodge with them by choice.

Welcome @BourbonRunnner

Find another lodge that doesn't have that element.  There must be a number of lodges in Baltimore that would love to have you.  

I can set you up with a square and compass on your profile if you would like.  Shoot me an email at [email protected] with a pic of your dues card or a screenshot of your virtual one from Grand View.

Thank you brother and appreciated. DM inbound with the dues card.

Far as switching lodges, the thought crossed my mind but i'm going to stay with my mother lodge. Not for any reason but the fact that my absence speaks volumes and is affecting change slowly but surely.

Greetings Brothers, This is my first post on this forum this time around - I think I was a member back around 2000.

PM X9 in a couple different lodges - I finally learned the secret Masonic word - No

Currently a member in good standing in Georgetown #12, Colorado Grand Lodge AF&AM

Glad to see a Masonic section here.

Hey BourbonRunner - I was in your same situation some years ago, and I won't ever return to that lodge. Don't let a few boneheads ruin your Masonic experience. I don't know what your Grand Lodge rules are, but at least visit nearby lodges regularly and hold Masonic fellowship with some new brothers. I promise, it will be worth it.
