Hm, interesting challenge! modorney is a 3 rd degree and pretty much into it. Would love to see him move up the ladder! What degree? Tom, Raised: Louisiana 102, NOLA. Joined: Simon Langton 7586 Canterbury, UK Founder: Regattas Henley-on-Thames, UK R.A.M. Monitor 88 Virginia, V.P.M. Mark Lodge and Capitular Degrees MacDonald Chapter 107 London, UK Peter Your turn. Hm. Blue Lodge 3 rd degee, Wyandotte, Ks. Scotish Rite in KC Mo. went through to 32nd Degree. Mine is not as intereting as your with European back ground. But we are all supposed to be Brothers in the Bond. Not only Masonic, but our individual GLO Fraternity's. While the Scotish Rite Temple iN KC, Mo. was magnicant, I am sure those in England were very grand. I remember when Masons were becoming outlaws and hidden. Most of our Founding Founders were Free Masons and proud of it but still hidden. To dsome degree so to spezk, LOL!

I know modorney is for sure! 3 rd is his tops.
But, like many of us, he is trying like crazy to help build Acacia, especially the Berkley chapter.
I love reading anything about Knights Templar as they were maybe a precursor of The Masons from what all they built over the years?

Next time you are in England go to Grand Lodge on Great Queen Street and arrange to visit an English lodge. (If I'm in the UK and we have a meeting scheduled I'll take you to my Lodge). I think you will find it really interesting. Blue Cards are not used in the UK but will serve the purpose of a travelling diploma.
