How many of you are in any Appendant bodies / side orders? How many of you stayed Blue Lodge only?

And why?

Currently I am only involved in my local home lodge. Eventually I will explore the Scottish Rite (NMJ USA).

    I was raised earlier this year. The consensus, I’ve gathered, is to focus on the Blue for at least a year to internalize the basics (and to avoid neglecting the home lodge in favor of a shiny new body). That said, I find the Scottish Rite interesting, and hope to explore it after I’ve solidified my footing in my home lodge. The Southern Jurisdiction offers an online learning space with a basic course “The Master’s Steps” to reinforce Blue Lodge work. I’ve started it, and it’s both deepened my appreciation for the work so far, and further kindled my curiosity for the Scottish Rite in general
