Dues Notices

Personal Representative

Fall is a wonderful time of the year.  As the days grow cooler and the trees start turning colors, we should consider all of the gifts the good Lord has given us.  One very important gift He has given us it the gift of helping others.  Scottish Rite helps in several ways.  Of course we know about the Scottish Rite Foundation of Florida and the wonderful work they are doing to help those children that experience learning difficulties.  Other charities we have in include the oldest Masonic pediatric hospital in the country.  It is located in Atlanta, which predates the Shrine hospitals.  We also have opportunities to help others in our Valley by sharing our knowledge with others.  Especially those new candidates we will be inducting at our Fall Reunion of October 16th and 17^th.  We need many more candidates as we have only about 7 at this time.  Many of us can remember reunions where we had 25, 30 or more candidate.  Please ask the members of your Lodges about becoming Scottish Rite Masons.  Ask other Masons if they are members.  My brothers membership is the life blood of any Masonic order, especially ours.  Share information on our gifts and what it means to be a Scottish Rite Mason.  I request you redouble your efforts to find those who do not know how great our order is and how they can become a part of it.

Why do you have to "put your two cents in"... but it's only a "penny for your thoughts"?  Where's that extra penny going to?
