Member of the Philalethes Society

I'm proud to say that I have recently received my membership letter and dues card for the Philalethes Society. I'm very excited to see what I can expect from one of the premier Masonic research groups in the world.

The Philalethes Society includes amongst its ranks some of the brightest minds in Freemasonry today. Included in the membership is a subscription to the Philalethes Magazine. This magazine publishs influential and well-researched pieces about the subject of Masonry including the writings of WB Ed Halpaus, the Grand Lodge Education Officer of Minnesota.

Minnesota is very lucky this year. This year, MWB Terry Tilton is the current president and Minnesota will be hosting the 82nd Annual Feast and Forum. Included on the program is MWB Tom Jackson, who will be discussing how we fail with college men and what we can do to win. I am very interested to attend this event.

All in all, I'm very excited to be a member of the Philalethes Society. If you're interested in joining, visit http://www.freemasonry.org

WB Nick, are you planning to/have you already taken the Society's masonic leadership course? It caught my interest, but the description was entirely too vague for the cost.

Not sure yet. I agree that the vagueness leaves me undecided as of yet. I'll try to get more information but at this point, I'm doubtful that I would actually participate. My own Grand Lodge provides great leadership materials for free to all Masters and Wardens known as the "Warden's Notebook."

I have taken the leadership course they sponsor, and I found it worth the investment of time and money it required.
