Hello From PA

[jvlighting1]

Hi all,
I just petitioned my local lodge and I am looking forward to joining. Community service is important to me as an individual. The Chip program is big in our area. I know several masons and they are excited for me. Any advice would be welcome and appreciated.

Greetings and salutations. Congratulations on taking the first step. I would just relax, and make sure you don't step on the goat. Other then that, just enjoy it.

I would suggest not reading up on it . It will be more special if you go in blind and with an open mind. Also all lodges do things a little different and what you read may be different in how your lodge does things . Some lodges , like mine , don't like our new members reading ahead anyway .
