Whence Came You?

Join us this week for an exploration of what it takes to attract Gen Z and Gen Alpha members, and how we can get out of the way and let them take our fraternity into the future. Darin A. Lahners gives us a diverse list of things we can do to facilitate this mission--should we decide to take it on. Then, we read the first in a three-part series from none other than Manly P. Hall.

Join us this week for a wonderful expression of what Freemasonry is doing for the world, and who we need to keep the Great Work moving forward. Then we've got a brand new Masonic Minute with Brother Steve Harrison--What changes a person who goes out into the cosmos and looks back on our planet? On our Moon? What did Freemason astronauts think when they came back, and what changed about the way they saw the world? It's called The Overview Effect: Ill. Brother Steve gives us an awesome segment all about this. We'll wrap it all up with our continued reading of Kris Wilson-Slack's piece on Theurgy and Freemasonry! All this and more. Stay Tuned.

This week, we’re looking at Theurgy! What is it? How is it related to Freemasonry? And why does it matter? We’ll get started with the first in a series by Kristine Wilson-Slack. Then, we discover an ancient, okay, not ancient, but antique piece of ephemera from the 1950s. A pamphlet on the SRICF, or the Masonic Rosicrucian Order. What did it say about the order? What are the prerequisites to joining? And what did they stand for? All this and more, stay tuned!
