Program accomplishments

  • The Scottish Rite seeks to strengthen a man's family life, the community in which he lives and believes that each man should act in civil life according to his individual judgment and the dictates of his conscience. The Scottish Rite seeks to: Exalt the dignity of every person, the human side of daily activities, and the maximum service to humanity, and to aid humankind's search in God's universe for identity, for development and for destiny. Thereby producing better men in a better world, happier men in a happier world and wiser men in a wiser world. It is the education of men to bring about a moral improvement that they may become better men for their families, better citizens of their country and better neighbors in society. Our programs fall into four basic categories - business meetings which generally include a dinner and a program of member interest, specialty programs for the enjoyment of our membership, degree presentations as required for new members, and recruitment type programs for new member solicitation. All degree presentations contain one or more of our fraternal core values. All programs are designed to comply with our mission statement of providing programs of inspiration, convenience and enjoyment to our members.
