Ega Association of Great Britain December 2001 Webpage - Letter from the Secretary Bird Hello Fellow Vega Sailors and Friends
VAGB Newsletter 31 “Masina” ega Association of Great Britain December 2001 Webpage - www.vagb.com Letter from the Secretary Bird Hello fellow Vega sailors and Friends, I am happy to report that 35 of us have just enjoyed a very good evening at the Laying - Up Dinner last Saturday at Banstead Downs golf club. This represented 17 boats, more than ten percent of all the boats in VAGB, which was an excellent turnout considering that quite a number are abroad. I was very pleased to see you all again and thankyou for supporting the Club once again. This year we were favoured by the presence of some very long distance members. Arne Heinich from Germany found he could get to the dinner by Ryan Air and back again for less than 2 nights in a marina., and half the cost of driving.! Keith Spencer Patrick (Rough Diamond) and his friend Louisa flew down from Carlisle and David and Margaret Hemsley (Vegality) actually drove down from Leeds. Apart from our long distance members all our faithful regulars, who are the backbone of the Club were there also. The chef excelled himself, the wine flowed freely and Vega sailors from all parts of UK and abroad were able to enjoy the unique camaraderie that seems to appear when we all meet again. The Ken Vasey Trophy was presented to Michael Feeney for his entry titled "Through the Dutch Canals" The Secretarys Prize was awarded to Barry Shurlock for his two part article "A Brush with the Raz, and More Dolphins and a Whale" Brian Pilcher won the Special Prize for his very well organised event, Round the Island in your own time, which was held in the Solent. -

Prayer of Release for Masons & Their Descendants
PRAYER OF RELEASE FOR MASONS & THEIR DESCENDANTS A 2002 Version If you or someone you love is a descendant of a Mason, I recommend that you pray through the following prayer from your heart. Don't be like the Masons who are given their obligations and oaths one line at a time and without prior knowledge of the requirements. First, bind spirits of deception, antichrist, witchcraft, and death in the name of Jesus Christ. Then read it through so you know what is involved. It is best to pray this aloud with a Christian witness or counselor present. We suggest a brief pause following each paragraph to allow the Holy Spirit to show any additional issues that may require attention. Father God, creator of heaven and earth, I come to You in the name of Jesus Christ Your Son. I come as a sinner seeking forgiveness and cleansing from all sins committed against You, and others made in your image. I honor my earthly father and mother and all of my ancestors of flesh and blood and by adoption, but I utterly turn away from and renounce all their sins. I forgive all my ancestors for the effects of their sins on my children and me. I confess and renounce all of my own sins. I renounce Satan and all of his works in my family and me. I renounce and forsake all involvement in Freemasonry or any other lodge or craft by my ancestors and myself. I renounce witchcraft, the principal spirit behind Freemasonry, and I renounce Baphomet, the Spirit of Antichrist and the curse of the Luciferian doctrine. -
What We May Have Forgotten About Royal Arch Masonry
What we may have forgotten about Royal Arch Masonry In a recent Inaugural address for a Past Principals Chapter an M.E.Z. dealt with the question of how the Royal Arch could be said to complete the Craft 3rd Degree. During his talk he drew attention to some of the anomalies that must strike the attention of any regularly attending Royal Arch Companion but since the main thrust of his paper was towards his chosen topic he very wisely left aside any further comment on these matters and any similar ones. I and others were delighted, however, to have these issues brought to our attention and though I am sure that most, if not all, present will have been instructed in these matters on some occasion in the past I wonder how many of us could have at once delivered up the answers to these queries or whether it was a case of recognizing “what we may have forgotten about the Royal Arch”? Since I believe that answers to these apparent anomalies increase our better appreciation of this Order, and are useful to have in case new Companions quiz us as ‘seniors’, I dare to offer some answers to the questions he posed. First, however, let me repeat what it was that this M.E.Z. drew to our attention and then add a few more similar queries of my own. a) Why is the candidate not admitted with the 3rd degree knocks? b) Why is there different regalia? c) Why are we called Companions? d) Why are the Craft and Chapter governed separately? e) Why at one time were only Installed Masters admitted? and where the M.E.Z. -
Oklahoma Mason February 2009
2009 - vol. II February/March page 1 James Richard Onkst - 1995 1939 - 2009 page 2 The Oklahoma Mason 2009 - vol. II February/March From the Grand Master As we begin writing this issue of the Oklahoma Mason Magazine, our thoughts and prayers are centered on the families of M.W. Jim Onkst, Past Grand Master in 1995, and R.W. Tom Ward Past Grand Treasurer of this Grand Jurisdiction. These two gentlemen were devoted family men and devoted Masons. There is a lot of degree work going on around the State AND most of these new Masons are very young. A few years ago, I would have just said "Young" not "Very Young", I guess I'm getting old (or they really are "Very Young")! If your Lodge needs some help performing the Degrees, please don't hesitate to ask for help. See the article by R.W. Randy Rogers in this issue. Your Brethren are always ready to assist. Once these young men start showing up to meetings, don't push them aside or set them in a corner. Get them involved through encouragement, not Force. That stuff doesn't work on these "Millennial Masons." They want to feel as though it is their decision to become part of something their Fathers & Grandfathers only whispered about. Also, they don't want their Degree "Shortened" or major parts left out. You see, they know more about what's going to happen to them then we did. Once your Lodge accomplishes a "Younger" look, you will find that your Lodge will begin to grow and become a viable part of the Community. -
Royal Order of Scotland
A History of The Royal Order of Scotland Taken From: “ High-Ways and Bi-Ways of Freemasonry” 1924 MOST of the authentic information regarding the establishment and history of this ancient and distinguished Order has been collected by those indefatigable Masonic historians, Brothers Hughan, Gould and Murray Lyon, and, during the year 1910, the various facts available were collated and put together in a very readable form by Brother E. Fox Thomas, the Provincial Grand Master of the Order for Yorkshire, in the pages of the Freemason. The fact that, as regards authentic documentary records, the Royal Order of Scotland can claim seniority over every other Masonic system - the Craft only excepted - is alone sufficient to invest it with the highest degree of interest, but, as a matter of fact, its antiquity is only one of its many claims to our respect and veneration. At one time it was considered right to ascribe a French origin to the Royal Order, but now the accepted opinion is that it is essentially British. On any other assumption it would be difficult to account for the Ritual which is in a rough but attractive doggere verse, undoubtedly early even if here and there it betrays signs of more recent modification. The Legends and all their associations are purely Scottish, but curiously the earliest authentic records have to do with England not Scotland, and the Ritual contains but little indication of any Scottish dialect. There are two degrees: I. Brother of Herridom (H:.R:.D:.M:.) II. Knight of the Rosey Cross (R:.S:.Y:.C:.S:.) The former is conferred in a chapter of H:.R:.D:.M:. -
