Join the Valley of Michigan’s Upper Region for Lodge of Perfection Day and a special celebration of the Feast of Tishri.

The day offers Master Masons an opportunity to begin their Scottish Rite journey by receiving the 4°, Builder. All Scottish Rite Masons are invited to experience a live conferral of the 14°, Grand Elect Mason—one of the most intriguing and symbolic degrees of Scottish Rite Masonry.

Following the degree work, members will participate in a new-member orientation and learn more about the benefits, fellowship and opportunities available through the Scottish Rite. The evening will conclude with a social, dinner and traditional Feast of Tishri observance.

The Feast of Tishri commemorates the harvest season and the completion and dedication of King Solomon’s Temple. Lodges of Perfection throughout the country observe this occasion as summer draws to a close and autumn begins.
