We have two very exciting educational events coming up in 2016. On January 13th, Ric Berman, the 2016 Prestonian Lecturer of the Grand Lodge of England will be in Des Moines.  He will be presenting a program called "Foundations." It is a lecture on the formation and development of modern Freemasonry in England in the early 1720's.  As far as we can tell this is the first visit of Iowa by a Prestonian lecturer.

About Dr. Richard Berman

Dr. Richard (Ric) Berman is the Prestonian Lecturer for 2016.  Appointed by the United Grand Lodge of England, he has been a Freemason for almost 40 years.  He is a Past Master of the Marquis of Dalhousie Lodge, No. 1159 (EC); Treasurer of Quatuor Coronati Lodge, No. 2076 (EC), England's oldest research lodge; and a PM of the Temple of Athene Lodge, No. 9541 (EC), the research lodge of the Province of Middlesex.  He also holds London and Provincial Craft Grand Rank.  

 
Masonic Education Conference

In February, our Scottish Rite Foundation has partnered with the Grand Lodge of Iowa and theMasonic Education Corporation to host the 2016 Masonic Education Conference.  This conference will be held in Des Moines on February 27th.  It will feature guest speakers on the Old Charges, the development of the Masonic ritual, and a presentation on current Masonic membership trends.  That evening will be the presentation of the Entered Apprentice Degree by members of the Grand Lodge of Louisiana.  Louisiana Masonic ritual is quite different that ours in Iowa.  As Louisiana was previously a French colony, there were French Lodges, Spanish Lodges, and British Lodges. Therefore, when Louisiana became a part of the United States, their lodges did as well.  The Grand Lodge of Louisiana recognizes several Masonic rituals.  One of which is a "Scottish Rite" version.  The brothers will be Eagleexemplifying this version of the Entered Apprentice degree.

  Announcing the passing of
          Brother Theodore H. Miller, 33°
  


 
I regret to inform the members of the Des Moines Valley of the passing of Judge Theodore "Ted" Miller 33°.  Ted passed away on December 27th.
 
Judge Theodore H. Miller, 96, passed away December 27, 2015. Theodore was born a son of Ray and
Ellen Hillis Miller on November 21, 1919 in Des Moines, where he lived most of his life. He attended Hubbell Elementary, Roosevelt High School and received his JD degree from Drake University.

Theodore was a great grandchild of a Civil War Veteran and faithfully served in the US Air Force during WWII. He served 15 years on the US Selective Service Board and was a post war Army Judge Advocate Division member.

Theodore was a partner from 1947 to 1976 with Tesdell, Miller, Rydell and Hall Law Firm. Then continued his career as a State of Iowa District Judge, 5th Judicial District until retirement in 1998. Judge Miller was a member of the Polk County and Iowa State Bar Associations, and a co-founder and past board member of the Iowa Academy of Trial Lawyers.  Theodore was a lifelong member of Grace United Methodist Church.  Judge Miller truly loved fishing and golfing and was a board member and past president of the Des Moines Golf and Country Club.
Ted began his Masonic journey in Waveland Park Lodge #654 and later joined Acanthus #632.  He was a member and Past President of Des Moines High-Twelve and belonged to Za Ga Zig Shrine serving on the Shrine Bowl committee.
 
He joined the Des Moines Scottish Rite in 1964.  Ted was an officer of the Lodge of Perfection line, was the Degree Master of the 7th Degree (Provost & Judge), and served as Master of Kadosh in 1978.  He invested with the rank, dignity, and honor of Knight Commander of the Court of Honour in 1973 and with the 33rd Degree, Inspector General Honorary in 1981.  Ted was a supporter of our Consistory building, serving on the building committee and workshop crew.  He was a member of the Iowa Scottish Rite Masonic Foundation Century club.  Ted became a 50 year member in 2014.

Theodore was preceded in death by his parents; his wife, Lois J Mitchell Miller; brothers, Hillis and George Miller and sister, Marjorie Richards. He is survived by his children, Linda Knudsen of Brentwood, TN and Ted Miller, Jr. (Candace) of Charlotte, NC; six grandchildren and seven great grandchildren.

Cremation rites have been accorded and no services are scheduled. Private burial will be at Masonic Cemetery in Des Moines. Memorial contributions may be directed to Grace United Methodist Church, 3700 Cottage Grove Ave., DM, IA 50311, in memory of Judge Miller.
Sincerely and Fraternally,

Meals from the Heartland - November 29th
Our annual charity project supporting the "Meals from the Heartland" will take place on Sunday, November 29th.  We will begin at 10:00 am and expect to finish up around 2:30 pm if all goes well.  Hopefully, this allows for some flexibility for everyone to attend and help out.  Feel free to join us for at any time during the event to help out as we always have plenty to do from beginning to end.
As we have done for the past several years we will pack 32,000 meals for those most in need.  This a great family event and there are plenty of ways to help regardless of age or ability.  

Lunch and cookies will be provided to all in attendance at no charge.  Please help us out by calling or emailing the SR office (515-288-8927 or rsvp@dmscottishrite.org) with the number in your party so we can have plenty of food for everyone.  

The funding for the purchase of the 32,000 meals comes from a grant given to Des Moines Consistory by the Iowa Scottish Rite Masonic Foundation in the amount of $5000.00.

Details for Fall Reunion and Double Eagle Gala
 
The 2015 Fall Reunion in honor of Most Worshipful Brother, Alfred L. Jensen, 32° KCCH and Illustrious Brother, John D. Japhet, 32° KCCH will conclude this weekend.  The first weekend was excellent and I am sure this weekend will be of equal fun and quality.

The class officers are President, Matt Lemons of Acanthus Lodge.  Class Secretary is Rex Valle of Southgate and A. Ross Krischel of El Paso Lodge #76 is the Orator.

We will kick things off with dinner tomorrow night in the Tapestry room at 5:00 pm.  The Kitchen Krew will be preparing Chicken Cordon Bleu.  Cost is $10 per person.

The 19th Degree, Grand Pontiff will begin promptly at 5:45 pm in the auditorium.  This is a relatively new degree to our Valley, so if you haven't seen it, a full auditorium is always a good thing.  After the 19th Degree is the 20th, imagine that!  The 20th is the Master of the Symbolic Lodge at 6:45 pm, the Prussian Knights will make an appearance at 7:45 pm and last but not least will be the Knights of the Royal Axe at 8:55 pm.  As many of you know, the 22nd degree features our Double Eagle Chorus and is a fan favorite.

Saturday morning kicks off early and with degrees of a very serious and symbolic nature, these are the Religious degrees of the Council of Kadosh.  The 23rd, Chief of the Tabernacle begins at 7:30 am, followed by 24th at 8:05 am, 25th at 8:55 am, 26th at 9:35 am, 27th at 10:15 am.  The members of the Knights of St. Andrew will finish off the morning with the 28th
Degree, Knight Commander of the Temple.  Lunch will be in the Tapestry room and will have a Mexican flair.  It will be a Taco bar buffet beginning at 11:50 am.  Cost is $8.

Then it will be back to the auditorium for the finality of the reunion.  The 29th Knight of St. Andrew at 12:40 pm and Knight Kadosh at 1:25 pm.  This will complete the Council of Kadosh degrees.  

The Consistory degrees (31st & 32nd) are completely different in both form and substance.  The 31st degree takes us to Ancient Egypt for the Court of the Dead at 2:50 pm, while the 32nd Degree (4:00 pm) reveals the Royal Secret.

Following the degree work will be our celebration of Scottish Rite Freemasonry, the Double Eagle Gala.  Social hour begins at 6:00 pm.  Master of Ceremonies, Ron Lindhart will be your host for the evening as we welcome our new Masters of the Royal Secret and honor our 50 year members.  Baratta's is catering with a choice of Beef Tenderloin or Salmon as the entrée.  Cost is $45 per person.

Our band for the Double Eagle Gala is "Freestyle" led by Ed Kelley.  It is a great band that is always popular with a wide range of songs and styles.

See you tomorrow night!
