Brethren,
I hope that you and your families are well and I would like to wish you all a Safe and Happy Holiday season! This year has certainly been trying to say the least. But, as it comes to an end here’s to looking ahead for brighter things in 2021!
Next year will bring some new and exciting changes to the School of Instruction. For instance, the 36th District Masonic School of Instruction will begin a rotating schedule brining the school to your home Temple and providing the opportunity for the members to meet, learn, and partake more locally. The School of Instruction will also begin meeting on two nights a month (2nd and 4th Thursday’s) with an opportunity to schedule sittings and certifications on the remaining Thursday’s. More information will be coming out regarding the new schedule in the coming weeks.
We will continue to provide instruction for the ritualistic work as Grand Lodge requires and also, we will provide any one on one instruction for anyone who requests it. Newly made, passed, or raised Masons are encouraged to attend to learn and build their knowledge of the degrees and those experiences. In addition, we will present a topic for discussion into some sort of educational aspect of the symbolism that is within the ritual. If you are interested in learning more in depth about what the ritual may signify, we will discuss these topics. Feel free to attend and take part or bring any insights that you may have come to a knowledge of.
Our School of Instruction meets at Springfield Masonic Building, 400 W. Woodland Avenue, Springfield, Pa 19064 each Thursday evening at 7:30 pm, with exception to the first Thursday of the month. There will be no School of Instruction on this day.
