I am a newcomer to the AR-15.com forums..
I am also a Past Master of Tuckahoe #347 AF & AF Masonic Lodge here in Richmond, Virginia. I was raised on March 25, 2010 and it was an experience I will always remember. I followed in the footsteps of many others before me, and I helped raise others to become Master Masons. It is such an honor that will last a lifetime! With that said, I have read some, inquisitive, some negative, comments by fellow AR-15 members. Let me explain Freemasonry in layman's terms, okay? Freemasonry: It's historically a view or speculative look back at the stone masons who built King Solomon's Temple back around 900BC. Jesus did not exist back then (obviously). Everything discussed within lodge is from the Old Testament. 1st Degree - Entered Apprentice. Basically, you are in grade school, learning the ways of a Mason. 2nd Degree - Fellowcraft. Basically, you are in middle school, and have learned enough, but not enough to get by. 3rd Degree - Master Mason. Basically, you are in high school, and/or heading to college, and have learned enough to carry you through life. You can pursue it further within the Scottish Rite and York Rite, etc... and go all the way up to the 32nd Degree. Wor. Butch Ammon PM, Tuckahoe #347, 2015 |

Welcome!
I'm a 3x PM myself. Have no plans to do it again. Now I play the grumpy Secretary and let the young kids run the Lodge. We haver an S&C icon I can add if you like. Shoot me an email at [email protected] with a copy of your dues card or if your jurisdiction uses GrandView a screenshot of your virtual dues card. We have a couple of our PGMs, great friends of mine, that now live in VA. I may be headed your way in February for the Conference of Grand Masters. |
