Reverence for God

NH Consistory — Mon, 12 Apr 2021 13:00:00 +0000

As Freemasons we believe there is one Supreme Being, and that we are all children of God. One of our Core Values as 32° Scottish Rite Freemasons is Reverence for God. We show our reverence by looking to God for guidance, and by putting it into action each day – in our thoughts, words, and deeds.

When the story of our lives comes to its final chapter, will we look back upon it with satisfaction? Did we make a positive impact on those around us? The best way to show Reverence to God is to be the best version of ourselves in everything we say and do.

White Flower Society

NH Consistory — Fri, 02 Apr 2021 12:00:00 +0000

The White Flower Society is a Scottish Rite Charity developed by First Lady Monica Glattly to assist and honor the widows of our brethren who have passed. The White Flower is symbolic of the DeMolay International public ceremony, the Flower Talk.

This ceremony teaches and reminds us of the importance of Mother’s Love and is performed by members of the society.

“It is our sincere hope that the widows of our members remember the most important thing; you are not forgotten. You have been and will always be a part of our Masonic Family and we are here for you.” – First Lady Monica Glattly

This Easter Season

NH Consistory — Tue, 30 Mar 2021 14:00:00 +0000

As Scottish Rite Masons, one of our core values is tolerance. This Easter season we all must be tolerant, respect the Faiths of others and allow each to practice as their own conscious dictates.

Remember the words of Illustrious Harry S. Truman, 33°, while dedicating a chapel to the memory of four men as President of the United States he said, ‘‘We must never forget that this country was founded by men who came to these shores to worship God as they pleased. Roman Catholics, Jews and Protestants all came here for this great purpose. They did not come here to do as they pleased — but to worship God as they pleased, and that is an important distinction.’’

Please have a blessed Easter.

We are our Brothers Keeper

NH Consistory — Mon, 29 Mar 2021 15:06:23 +0000

Our Vision: “We will strive to be a fraternity that fulfills our Masonic obligation to care for our members.” Brethren, as we look to the not-too-distant future for an end to the state’s still looming health crisis, it is important that we remember to check in with each other. Please reach out to a brother you haven’t heard from in a while. It is important to know that we are all still here and healthy.

And if you know of a brother in need, please let us know. We look forward to seeing the brethren again in person when this crisis has come to a close.
