IT'S TIME TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE

Square and Compass

So, how can you make a difference? People inherently feel better when they know what they're doing is, in fact, making a difference. Not just a difference in their own lives, either, but other lives too. What is your goal in life? What drives you to face a new day every day? Some will find their lives reduced to nothing more than living to simply exist. Is this the way God intended for us to live? -- Just to exist? I think you'll agree that there is more to life than that. Sometimes people get lost in their quest to find out what life is all about and need a little guidance to help them find that elusive goal.
So, the purpose of this web page is to help men get involved in some organizations that WILL help them to find more about themselves and in doing so, make a difference. You can make a difference because by bettering yourself you in turn better your relationships with others. In doing so you will feel better about yourself and you'll see that you are making a difference--not only in your life but other's lives too (Wives, Children, Friends, even strangers). In society today, it is often very hard to find something to believe in. Society's moral compass can and has led us astray. We need something to bring us to where we can get back on track, get back to where God intends us to be. This really is something to give serious consideration. When we're gone from this earth we should have made more of an impact than simply we were born and died. Make a difference! There are some links here to help you find out more about what I'm speaking of. For those women who are reading this, there are organizations for you, too. I will get to those later.


Start making a difference

See that link above? Click on it to find out more information about what I'm speaking of. Give it a good look. Don't disregard it because of what you might have heard. Remember if nothing changes, nothing changes.

Did you read it? even just a little? What did you think? Curious? There is probably an organization like this in your hometown or one near-by. Look them up in the phone book and vist them by phone or in person.


KTEF

Knights Templar
Here's another organization which you can get involved in. What if I told you that you had the opportunity to give a person sight or fix any number of eye ailments that a person might have. Here's another way you can make a difference:

Knights Templar Eye Foundation

O.K. well now you have a an opportunity to make a difference for yourself, your family and others. The rest is up to you. Visit your local lodge and get some more information about this order or better yet look for a MASON and get it from him. See that symbol at the top? The square and compass with the letter "G" in the center? A gentleman wearing that symbol is a mason. A building in town with that symbol on it is where masons meet and you definitely can find information there.
Alright ladies, Once your better half has become a mason, you too can get involved. The "Eastern Star" is an excellent way to get involved. Once a Mason has joined the Scottish-Rite or York-Rite he can become a "Shriner" and there are activities for you there too.
Make it happen! You can make a difference! Don't simply live to exist, experience life through KNOWLEDGE, HOPE and CHARITY

Here are some other links, too:
