Freemasonry is a beautiful system of morality, veiled in allegory, and illustrated by symbols.

Sul Ross Lodge, chartered in 1947, is thought to be the first Masonic Lodge to have functioned on the campus of a state college or university in the United States. A unique feature of the new lodge was that among its members were the president of Texas A&M College, all of the deans, and almost all of the department heads. The sizeable number of college administrators who were Master Masons provided impetus to the growth of the new lodge which created almost 100 new masons during its first year of existence.

Brethren,

Tomorrow evening, Sul Ross Lodge will have a Master Degree with a FC Exam beforehand.

We will open Lodge at 630PM to begin the FC Exam and the Master Degree will be immediately afterwards. For those travelling from afar, if you are not able to make it by 630 for the FC Exam, we would still love to see you for the degree.

“Declaration of Independence” by John Trumbull.

Today marks the 250th anniversary of the formal adoption of the Declaration of Independence. The Declaration, signed by 56 men - 8 of whom were known to be Masons - was not a legal document, but instead a formal proclamation of the rights of all men and a condemnation of tyranny. The Declaration highlights the rights to Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness which are fundamental American principles that are still cherished today by Masons in America and all over the world. Happy Independence Day, brethren.

For the Master,

A. Olivier

Last night Sul Ross Lodge held its annual Lamar Awards ceremony. There were five students and two teachers who earned awards. One student even gave a thank you speech. All of the awardees are very dedicated and service oriented.

Tonight at our stated meeting, Brother Chris Ryland visited our lodge and gave an illuminating presentation called “Be The Light.” We also had some fantastic ribs and BBQ personally cooked by the Master himself. If you weren’t at this meeting, you missed a great one.
