Are you a 20-something Mason?

I'm looking to talk to guys in their 20's (and younger if you are out there) in preparation for a show I am doing on your generation. Please drop me an email if you can help me! Thanks!

How about the 30-something Mason? My gut says this is Freemasonry's fastest growing demographic. I'm bias, but I have a hunch. Either way, I'm anxious for more!

Greetings,

I am a 26 year (old very) keen Mason in Adelaide, South Australia.

I am being raised to the sublime degree of a master mason 1st August.

I have spend 1 year as EA and 1 year as FC.

Fire away if you have any questions...


Fraternal Regards,

Anton

I am a Master Mason from Petoskey Lodge No.344
MI F.&A.M.

I serve currently as Chaplain.

And i also am a member of Evangaline Chapter No.91 O.E.S.
Boyne City MI

Oh ya i am 24 yers of age.

I'm 28, I was raised in April (initiated early November, passed late February) the week before our Grand Lodge in New Jersey (Atlantic City, no less). I'll get my first officer's position when we open again in the Fall (Chaplain), and I wish I had had enough time to submit my application to Scottish Rite, but alas (so I wait a few months). For a state with such dense population, there's only four Lodges in my district.

I'm trying to be helpful to the Lodge by working on a website for us. I'm someone who would appreciate ANY substantive lectures that are Mackey-esque in scope given on a regular basis at Lodge. Perhaps a 10 minute presentation. THAT kind of thing would be interesting to record and send to Xoriente as podcast content, methinks.

I am a 22 year old mason in Arkansas I was raised 6 months ago and hearing your show was one of the factors that led me to join I would help in any way.

I am a 26 year old Master Mason from Missouri, Linn Creek Lodge No. 152. I would like to help in anyway needed.

Look for a reference to Freemasonry and Shriners in the current issue of Maxim.

I will get a copy of that tomorrow, and check it out.

I petitioned the fratertinty at age 20 and was initiated following my 21st birthday.(LA lowered the age soon thereafter) I am now 30 and have lived and been active in lodges NY, LA, UT, NM, & now CA.

I am more than happy to share my story with you.

24 Year Old Southern California Mason here. I'd love to help in any capacity. Thanks!

I am a very active 22 year old Master Mason. I have been a Mason for the last 3 years. I will assist in any way I can.

I am a 28 yr. old 32nd degree Mason. I have traveled since I was of age and have seen and done a lot for the organization. Feel free to contact me at bigfishpro@hotmail.com to chat or to just meet a fellow brother. TTE

I'm a 23 year old Master Mason. I recently was raised to that degree, so while I am still new, I've been working hard to get as much as I can as soon as I can.

I'm a 26 year old, have been a Mason for 6 years. I am Senior Warden of my lodge and apart of every Masonic Body as well...

I am a 26 year old MM of Concordia 13 of AFAM Maryland. I am currently SS but will be moving on to SD in January. Feel free to contact me at anytime!

Brother,

I'm 22 years old, MM, Solomon Lodge 36 AF&AM Of Delaware

I am a 23 year old Master Mason and Junior Deacon of Buck Creek Lodge #410 in Alabaster, Alabama. I am a 3rd generation Freemason and am about to go through the Scottish Rite and the Shrine.

If you are still looking for 20-something Masons, we have raised maybe a dozen of them over the last year in Winter Park Lodge #239. Let me know if you would like to get in touch with any of them at this late date. (I'm old enough to be their father, but I'm friends with the crowd.)
