Three Blue Friars at Texas MasoniCon 2024!

If you are interested in Masonic research, then you are no doubt aware of the Society of Blue Friars, the distinguished Masonic organization established in 1932 by J. Raymond Shute II. Its primary purpose is to recognize and honor Masonic authors, a niche that distinguishes it as one of the smallest and most unique bodies within Freemasonry. Over the years, the Society of Blue Friars has included many notable Masonic authors and researchers, such as Ray V. Denslow, Harold V.B. Voorhis, Arthur E. Waite, S. Brent Morris, Rex R. Hutchens, Arturo de Hoyos, and Pierre G. "Pete" Normand, Jr.

This year, we have two distinguished Blue Friars giving presentations: MW Bro. Robert Davis and Bro. Adam Kendall. A past TXMC presenter and Blue Friar, Bro. Joe Wäges, will be available in the vendor area with his books.

If you are interested in learning more about their research, or want to get their advice on conducting your own Masonic research, there’s no better time and place than Texas MasoniCon 2024! Get your ticket now at texasmasonicon.com!
