Adrian Marsh
Grand Secretary  CRAFTCAST: THE FREEMASONS PODCAST
The one about visiting Lodges  
In this light-hearted episode of Craftcast, our usual hosts are joined by guest host Mitch Bryan to discuss one of the cornerstones of a Freemason’s experience:
visiting another Lodge.

Visiting is an integral part of Freemasonry. It provides an opportunity for Freemasons to connect and exchange ideas, knowledge, and experiences. Our hosts dive into their experiences as visitors and discuss their exposure to diverse perspectives, rituals, and customs practiced by different lodges, both at home and abroad.

Together, they reflect on the camaraderie and friendships forged through their visits, and explain why they encourage all Freemasons to embrace the opportunity to visit other Lodges and expand their horizons.

Freemasonry and the Suffragettes  
Freemasonry and the Suffragettes
on Solomon Live on Tuesday 13 June at 19:30.

For Freemasons, there are four important values that help define their path through life: Integrity, Friendship, Respect and Charity.

Author, editor, researcher and Freemason Philippa Lee discusses how these values were put into practice in the early 20th century, by both male and female Freemasons, to advance the cause of women’s suffrage. SAVE YOUR SEAT  FIRST RISING FEEDBACK AND AMENDING YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS Did you enjoy this edition of First Rising?
