  • The Irish Connection - Michael W
    The Irish Connection - Michael W. Walker The Irish Connection By R.W. Bro. Michael W. Walker Grand Secretary, Grand Lodge of Ireland This Short Talk Bulletin has been adapted from remarks given at the 200th Anniversary of Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania. We thank R.W. Bro. Walker for permitting us to share them with his American Brethren. The Grand Lodge of Ireland was five years old, at least, when the first record exists of a Time Immemorial Lodge – St. John's Lodge – in Philadelphia. This was, of course, followed by the first Regular Warranted Lodge in America, three years later, in Boston. I say the Grand Lodge of Ireland was at least five years old in 1730, because we date our Constitution from the first record, in 1725, of a Grand Lodge Meeting ''June 26th, St. John,s Day: More than '100 gentlemen ' met in the 'Yellow Lion in Warbrough Street' and later went to King's Arms. The procession included 'the Masters and Wardens of the Six Lodges of Gentlemen Freemasons, who are under the jurisdiction of the Grand Master, and the Private Brothers, all in coaches' (it being a very rainy day). A new Grand Master, Rt. Hon. the Earl of Ross was elected. After a meal they went to a play." Clearly, therefore, Grand Lodge was in earlier existence though we cannot say exactly when, or challenge the claim of our much larger Sister Grand Lodge that she is the Mother Grand Lodge. There are, of course, records of Time Immemorial Lodges going back much earlier in Ireland.

  • 2010 Commission Report
    2010 Commission Report BAJA CALIFORNIA The two groups representing the Grand Lodge of Baja California agreed at the meeting of the Commission last year to sit down with the assistance of selected mediators and work for a resolution of their differences. This was accomplished and M :.W :. Franco Magdaleno Soto representing one faction, and M :.W :. Bro. Hector Pablo Meixueiro, representing the other faction signed the "California Agreement" which summarized the terms for unification of the two groups. Following that meeting, the Grand Lodge group headed by G.M. Soto ratified the agreement The Grand Lodge group headed by G.M Meixueiro would not concur with the agreement. During the year, several attempts to encourage completion of the ratification process were unsuccessful. Both Grand Masters attended the current meeting of the Commission, and both agreed to negotiate BOLIVIA A new Grand Lodge has surfaced in Bolivia, named the Grand Lodge of York Rite for Bolivia, located in the Department (state) of Cochabamba. It was founded in June of 2008 and composed of members from the Grand Lodge of Bolivia. There is no evidence of them being constituted by a regular Grand Lodge, nor is there a pact or treaty that the Grand Lodge of Bolivia will share the jurisdiction with them. The claim of this Grand Lodge is that the Constitution of Bolivia gives them, and no one else, sovereignty in the Department of Cochabamba. It is suspected that this may be true politically, but not Masonicly. This Grand Lodge has not been recognized by any other Grand Lodges, but they claim legitimacy by virtue of the fact that their members come from Lodges of the Grand Lodge of Bolivia, which is recognized by the United Grand Lodge of England.

May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face; the rains fall soft upon your fields, and until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand. Dear Sir Knights and Cousins, I greet you with a traditional Irish blessing, and I pray that you are safe and healthy during these unique times. While this year has been challenging, there have been many special events that have strengthened our hope for a bright future of not just sustainability and continuity, but also of growth and Light. This publication is being stylized as a Knightly News Magazine, as it places emphasis on vignettes that promote a deeper understanding of our Knighthood with thought provoking articles. Education being one of the pillars of our Mission Statement, I believe that a proper application of what we learn and share will help to keep our councils vibrant and prospering. I firmly believe that it is the duty of each Cousin to impart what they have learned to others, sharing their Light and strengthening this Order of Knighthood. A lot of effort has gone into this publication and I extend my appreciation to our contributing writers and to M.E. Kevin B. Sample, who published this edition of the Knightly News Magazine.

  • Freemasonry from England to The
    R.W. Douglas L. Jordan, K.Y.C.H., K.C.C.H., O.P.C. Past District Deputy Grand Master Past Grand High Priest Grand Governor for Virginia, YRSC of NA I . Where did Masonry start? Without a doubt, Masonry has existed from the time when "the memory of man runneth not to the contrary" - that is from "time immemorial." Some Masonic writers in the late 190' Century claimed Noah as our founder. Those of us who have had the pleasure of witnessing Springfield Lodge's presentation on Cleopatra's Needle are aware of the very Masonic symbols that were found under the base of an Egyptian obelisk that was erected about 1500 B.C. John Robinson in Born in Blood provides much evidence that we owe our lodges to the Knights Templar who needed a cover following their suppression by the Catholic Church in 1307. The most generally accepted view, points to the guilds of freemasons. Operative masons have always been involved in the building of temples and other monuments from antiquity to the present day. Written evidence indicates that sometime before 926 AD masons had formed guilds or lodges but appear to have had some problems in their government. The Regius Poem or Halliwell Manuscript, which dates from 1390, tells how Athelstan, King of All England, called an Assembly at York in 926 to consider the government of the Master Masons and Craftsmen. At this assembly, fifteen Articles were adopted for the government of the Master Mason. These Articles include that: The Master must be steadfast, trusty and true.

Hon. The Earl of Donoughmore, K.P., Most Worshipful Grand Master, at the meeting of the Grand Lodge held in Belfast, 6th October, 1938, and was unanimously approved by the Brethren present: DECLARATION 1. From time to time the Grand Lodge of Ireland has deemed it desirable to set forth in precise form the aims of Freemasonry as consistently practised under its Jurisdiction, since it came into being as an organised body in 1725, and also to determine the principles governing its relations with those other Grand Lodges with which it is in fraternal accord. 2. In view of representations which have been received, and of statements recently issued which have distorted or obscured the true objects of Freemasonry, it is once again considered necessary to emphasise certain fundamental principles of the Order. 3. The first condition of admission into, and membership of the Order is a belief in the Supreme Being. This is essential and admits of no compromise.

  • Leinster Lodge 141
    Oct 2011 Issue 30 THE NEWSLETTER OF THE METROPOLITAN MASONIC LODGES LEINSTER LODGE 141 Lodge 141 is one of the oldest Lodges in the Metropolitan Area having been in continuous working since 1834. It is a very active Lodge and is particularly unusual in that it has an exceptional number of Grand Lodge Officers on its roll, including the Deputy Grand Master, the Grand Secretary, the Grand Registrar, the Grand Almoner and several others. The Lodge opened its busy Spring Season with the Installation of Geoff Lovegrove in the Chair to celebrate his fiftieth year as a member and then continued with a busy schedule which included Ballots for Candidates and Affiliates, an Emergency Meeting in May with 2 First Degrees and then the annual Floating Lodge Meeting on the Canal Boat 70M on the Shannon, (at which a Ballot was held). The Ritual, as usual, was excellent even if the clothing was slightly casual! This was followed by the traditional Barbecue, (On dry land). In addition to all of this, as part of the regular programme of visiting other Lodges, in April, 141 visited the Prince of Wales Lodge 222 in Greystones for a most interesting meeting. The Season ended with an excellent Barbecue night in St. Brigid’s Parochial Centre in Stillorgan attended by 40 Brethren, their friends and some of the Lodge widows, which raised nearly €1,000 for the Charities. OBITUARY R.W. Bro. Leslie Victor Johnston Right Worshipful Assistant Grand Master Died 26th August 2011 R.W. Bro.

  • The Builder Magazine October 1922 - Volume VIII - Number 10
    The Builder Magazine October 1922 - Volume VIII - Number 10 The Religion of America By BRO. JOSEPH FORT NEWTON, NEW YORK America belongs to the soul as much as to the body, and therefore, like Olympus in the Homeric poems, is rightly found in the geography of the spiritual world. It would be better, perhaps, if we learned to think of it in this wise oftener than we do - better for America as well as for ourselves, and that in ways the most practical. At any rate such is the theme of the author of this beautiful essay, and he has won such fame as an interpreter of the religious implications of the American ideas as gives his words great weight. Readers of THE BUILDER will he interested to know that Brother Newton has recently produced a brilliant book entitled "Preaching in London"; it is published by The George H. Doran Company, 244 Madison Avenue, New York. In due time it will be reviewed in the Library Department. RELIGION is a universal and elemental power in human life, and to limit its scope by restrictive adjectives would seem, at first glance, to be self-contradictory. For this reason, the idea of an American religion borders on inconsistency. Since all souls are alike genetically, and the divine life flows into all similarly; since human life pulsates to the same great needs, the same great faiths, the same great hopes, why speak of the religion of one nation as if it were unique? Is not the religious sentiment a supreme revelation of the essential unity of humanity, and the ultimate basis of brotherhood? Exactly, but the very fact that religion is the creative impulse of humanity promises variety of form, of accent and expression.
