The Middle Chamber

On Monday, October 31st, 2011, our Lodge held an Emergent Communication for the Fellowcraft Degree. Brothers Rick Anderson, Michael Flaherty, and Michael Walsifer performed thier Entered Apprentice proficiencies quite admirably, considering they were initiated just twenty-eight days prior!


As a Fellowcraft, you are symbolically and Masonically a builder.

In learning and education, we must listen if the work is to be properly transmitted from generation to generation. The life of Freemasonry depends on ears that are attentive.
An instructive tongue is necessary in order that knowledge be conveyed accurately. But the tongue teaches more that ritual. It informs Masons of the great truths and symbolism in Masonry. That makes good men better men.
The faithful breast is the repository for those few secrets entrusted to you as you progress through the three degrees in Masonry. It is also the repository of those ideals you should display in life and pass on to your Brethren, that they may learn and grow to be better men.
You have been given the tools to build your square, level and plumb.
You were taught the value of work.
You know the importance of acquiring knowledge. It is in sharing this knowledge that will make you richer and a builder in the sight of God.
