High, white and gleaming, Galveston rises on the island named after Count Galvez. Less a city than a symbol, Galveston was established with immortalized ideals… a metropolis of surging human aspiration. From the struggling evolution

of a Mexican colony to a modern city, Galveston has always been a dominant power in the State of Texas. Harmony Lodge No. 6, A.F. & A.M. had its beginning when the Galveston population was less than five hundred persons. The Lodge is so connected to the events of importance in the history of Galveston that the story of either would be incomplete without many joined references to each institution. In 1838, a number of Master Masons residing in Galveston presented a petition for dispensation to form a new Lodge to Most Worshipful Grand Master Anson Jones. On June 2nd, 1838, the dispensation was granted to F. Gibson, Nicholas Lynch, Amassa Turner, W. Thomas Brannum, Samuel M, Williams, James P. Boylen and Thomas M. However, from the Grand Lodge records it was learned that no Lodge was formed nor any action taken on the dispensation at that time. From old records of the city, this delay in organizing a Lodge was evidently due to epidemics of yellow fever, cholera, and other loathsome diseases which the medical profession was not yet able to conquer. On June 5th, 1839, Most Worshipful Grand Master B. Archer issued a second dispensation to form a Masonic Lodge at Galveston to be known as Harmony Lodge No.6, A.F. & A.M. Brother George Fisher was authorized by the Grand Master to set the Lodge to work. To continue reading history visit:

Freemasonry teaches us to seek peace, practice charity, and live as Brothers.

But what does that mean in a world that often seems anything but peaceful?

This week's Short Talk Bulletin considers the Mason's responsibility to help bring peace and harmony to the world around him.

A timely lesson from the Masonic Service Association—and a good one to contemplate as we go about our daily lives.

What makes a good Masonic leader?

Leadership in the Lodge is about more than holding an office. It is about setting an example, serving our Brethren, and helping the Lodge fulfill its purpose.

This week's Short Talk Bulletin, Lodge Leadership, offers some timeless thoughts for every Mason who has accepted—or may someday accept—the responsibility of leading his Lodge.

Every Mason is imperfect. But what do we do when a Brother goes astray?

This week's Short Talk Bulletin explores the Masonic response to “An Erring Brother.” It is an excellent reminder that our obligations to one another extend beyond the Lodge room.

Give it a listen and consider how the principles of Freemasonry guide us in dealing with one another.

Written in 1926 by Rev Dr Bro Joseph Fort Newton, this Short Talk explores a Mason’s duties to his erring Brother. Enjoy! Donate! Donate Now With Paypal!
