Public Relations Committee

Did you know that the Masons of Nova Scotia have a Public Relations Committee? Why? What does it do? Who does it report to? How is it funded? Who keeps track of its' expenditures? Does it give money to lodges & district projects? How can I get my hands on some of that? Well these are all good questions and to get the answers goto the Boards & Committees item on the left sidebar, select P.R Committee  for the answers.

Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Canada

 

For over two centuries the Scottish Rite has been the medium for many Master Masons to reflect upon their relationship with their faith, their fellow man and with themselves. It enables Master Masons to add to their Masonic knowledge and to witness colourful Scottish Rite 'degrees' which are dramatic presentations portraying the philosophy of Freemasonry.

The Scottish Rite (ritual) delves further into Masonic teachings and is meant to provide more insight into living a more meaningful way of life for a Master Mason and his family. It also includes enjoying the friendships and association with a larger and wider cross-section of like-minded men and their families.

In Canada the Scottish Rite, through their Scottish Rite Charitable Foundation, provides generous research grants and bursaries toward the finding of causes, prevention and treatment of all forms of the Puzzles of the Mind e.g. Dementia, Alzheimer’s and Dyslexia which is being addressed by our Learning Centres for children situated across Canada.
