Magpie coverage of the Hudson Valley Masonicon is forthcoming, but while I’m working on that let me promote the appearance Tuesday night of the inimitable Andrew Hammer in New Jersey.
This will be at Essex Lodge 7 in Caldwell, a lodge that has hosted Hammer at least once previously. The graphic above has the details.
Andrew’s message always inspires and is framed in different terms from time to time. He exalts us to achieve the best in lodge practice, and he explains the practical means to get there. Whether you’re familiar with his thinking or not, get there to hear him. And read his book! (My review is here.)
Jay, I sort of touched on this with you some time ago - the average Blue Lodge WM,officer, and member is simply not aware of Wor. Brother Hammer's reputation or his book; the same applies to the Knights of the North and to Laudable Pursuit. IMHO it doesn't matter how gold collar GL-oriented Brothers are familiar with the above. Unless the same familiarity exists down at the level our Craft lodges, then positive change ain't gonna happen. This needs to be a bottom-up fix. Respect! Donnie.
