The host of the CBS Radio quiz show "Strike It Rich" program, Todd Russell (standing on church steps, wearing scarf), looks on as contest winner Joseph Snyder hands out dollar bills to men on a breadline in front of the Franciscan monastery, January 19, 1948. Snyder, a winner of $230 (the equivalent of more than $3,000 today), had been on the line in the past.

THE BROTHERHOOD OF ANGELS AND MEN

“The ancient doctrine affirms a Brotherhood not bounded by flesh, wherein angels and men labor as cooperators within one ordered hierarchy of Light. The celestial hosts are not distant ornaments of theology, but living intelligences, governors of law, measure, and harmony; and humanity, when rightly prepared, is admitted into their service as a junior partner in the Divine Work.

Every sacred culture has preserved this truth beneath differing names. The Hebrews spoke of Malachim, messengers of measure and command; the Persians of Amesha Spentas, immortal beneficences; the Greeks of daimones, mediators between heaven and earth; the Hindus of the Devas, shining administrators of cosmic order. Diversity of tongue veils a single reality: intelligences who shape, sustain, and refine the worlds according to archetypal law.

Man stands not outside this hierarchy, but within it. When disciplined by virtue and illuminated by reason, the human soul becomes a conscious coworker with higher minds. The fall of man was not a banishment from heaven, but an amnesia of vocation. Initiation is remembrance.

Herein is revealed the deeper office of Masonry. Its rituals do not petition angels as supplicants implore kings; they prepare the ground upon which intelligences may lawfully descend. Through geometry, orientation, proportion, purity of intention, and fraternal concord, the Lodge is fashioned as a microcosmic temple, consonant with celestial order. Where harmony is established below, harmony responds above.

Thus Masonry is not symbolism alone, but operative metaphysics. It labors to rectify the inner man and to consecrate space itself, making the material world translucent to higher influence. Angels work where order reigns; they withdraw where chaos prevails.

Please, enjoy this afternoon.

In 2022, two jaguar cubs were born at Parque Nacional El Impenetrable in northern Argentina. The 320,000-acre preserve opened in 2017, but hiking trails, glamping sites, and tourism programs have recently made the area easier to explore.

This is a handout my friend had made using all the information I gave her, based on the handouts I had initially written to give out at our closet giveaways for Gaza and Sudan. Please help us advocate for these family campaigns!
