TheseAdopted Degrees serve the Valleyand Blue Lodges in several ways.As we all know each week Dozensof Scottish Rite Brethren take thetime to come down and help put onthese Degrees and share with theCandidates those lessons we allhope to learn and follow in ourlives.By taking on the Role of Adoptingthese Degrees, Lodges and theirScottish Rite members help byserving these Degrees and thosewho put them on, sometimes bybecoming directly involved themselves or by just coming down andsitting on the sidelines in supportof all those who commit themselves to do the work each week.They also serve to encourage thoselodges to gather as Brethren andenjoy the camaraderie of the Riteas a Lodge and participate andspend time with one another. Foras we all know, this is "Your Scottish Rite" and we need each of youto be a part of it to keep it strongand viable. I hope that each of youwill take the time to come downeach of you at the Rite and if I orany of the Double Eagles can be ofassistance, please don't hesitate toask!I hope that each of you willtake the time to come downand see some of the finest workdone in all the SouthernJurisdictionand see some of the finest workdone in all the Southern Jurisdiction, whether it be during yourLodges Adopted Degree night ornot, but more so if it is, as it isyour obligation to support thesenights. If you lodge Doesn't havean adopted degree yet, there arestill a few available.As always, I look forward to seeingWB Terrance M Schaffer, 32ºK⸫C⸫C⸫H⸫Chairman, Double Eagle CommitteeMinneapolis Valley of the ScottishRite
PASSING FROM THE SQUARE TO THE COMPASSESWith the Spring Reunion coming up, thiswould be a great timefor Brothers to beintroduced to the Scottish Rite.The lessons taught in our Degreesare timeless and continue to havea profound impact on countlessBrothers. We have several outstanding Brothers in our currentclass, and they are embracing thelessons with enthusiasm. It wouldbe great to have more Brothers onthe sidelines to see the work, get toknow and support our new Brothers and to be re-energized by theDegrees.I am reminded of a passage fromthe 4th Degree. “You have nowpassed from the Square to theCompasses, as the geometricianpasses from the straight lines andangles by which he measures thesurface of the earth to the greatcurves and circles by which he calculates the movements of thestars. Strive ever to rise above thelevel of the mundane and to climbthe skies of spiritual and philosophical knowledge. For there, andnot upon the earth, are Truth andthe Lost Word to be found.”Think of the impact on the world ifmore of us would “rise above thelevel of the mundane”.tion, there is a great series of RedRoom programs planned and someof the best Masonic networkingopportunities in Minnesota. Thereare also countless opportunities toget involved. All you need to do isask! Check your calendar andcome on back!See you at the Rite!What are you doing to embraceand live the lessons of ourRite?What are you doing to embraceand live the lessons of our Rite? Ifyou know any Master Masons whomight be interested in the lessonsof the Scottish Rite, invite them toconsider the Spring Reunion.Call and invite a Brother who youhaven’t seen for a while to havedinner and see a Degree.
