This video breaks down the some of the fees associated with being a Mason. Understand the first is becoming a Mason in a Blue Lodge. Then you can join the others. However, if you ever let your Lodge Membership expire then you are automatically out of the others (in most cases).
At minimum you become a member of the local lodge and you don't ever have to join any other group, unless you want to. All the rest are optional.

There was a smudge on the wall behind you and I spent like 2 minutes trying to scratch it off my screen😂

@CoolestLife 9 месяцев назад

That is awesome. Atleast your screen is clean now.

You forgot to mention all the other associated expenses other than dues. Such as transportation costs to attend countless functions as well as clothing costs like a suit, tuxedo , specific polo shirts and T shirts. Most organizations also like to pass that hat to support worthy causes... The dues are only a small part of the money equation if you wish to be an active member!

@CoolestLife 8 месяцев назад

Much of that has to do with your local lodge. My lodges that I am a member of do not require a suit or a tux (most don't). Polos are also an option and not required. Travel to other events is also an option. However dues is not an option.

@CoolestLife I'm referring to to the Scottish Rite and Shrine . If you wish to be active there most certainly are clothing costs , pass the hat costs. Even to be active in Blue Lodge there are added transportation costs to attend local functions or schools at other lodges. I feel that your video oversimplified the monetary aspect of Masonry.

@andrewevans1658 well most of those things are optional and it is simple. Scottish Rite can be more formal. I have attend some SR jurisdictions where there were only 5 suits and the rest were not. So it can varry. Compare this hobby golf... masonry is much cheaper. Passing the hat is rare, I would say 1 out of 20 meetings I go to do they may do this. Again, voluntary and going to a particular need.

Wow, crazy how dues are considerably different around the country up here in Detroit I was raised in 2010 and it’s 200 to join lodge and 150 annual dues. I join the Scottish Rite this year and it was 175 and I believe it’s 140 yearly dues and in 2010 when I joined the Shrine it was 500 initiation fee and I forgot how much dues are I’m not a Shriner anymore but definitely over $100 a year.

My great grandfather was a mason and I believe he came from a long line of masons. I was always curious about them. How does one join?

@CoolestLife 8 месяцев назад

Find a local lodge and call the phone number. Show up an hour before the meeting (normally a meal is served) and visit with them.

@@CoolestLife that simple huh? I just moved to Nashville a few years ago and have driven by the Grand Lodge a few times now. I would love to check it out.

Commandery used to require you to be Christian. Now you may join if you promise to defend the Christian faith.

@CoolestLife 9 месяцев назад

Ooooo, never heard that before. In GA I believe it may still be a requirement.

@@CoolestLife Check with Grand Encampment. It may be there.

@@CoolestLife I am a S.K. in the state of Washington. It is not a requirement to be a Christian; only to defend the Christian faith. I am a Mormon, and it was a struggle to decide to receive the Commandery orders. We Mormons believe in Jesus as the Christ, and we believe in the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. Mormons are not, however, "Trinitarian Christians." So, it was a struggle for me. Ultimately, I decided to continue my York Rite Journey and I received the Commandery orders. I am sooooo glad that I did. I have received both Scottish and York Rites. I love them both for different reasons. The Scottish Rite offers a number of educational resources. I cherish the Brotherhood in the York Rite. There is just something about it that I cannot explain, but I certainly enjoy.
