Summary

The Grand Lodge Committee on Masonic Education is collecting presentations to disseminate to the Brethren of Virginia. The Regional Provost for Region 10 has started a Regional Provost Newsletter to be sent to each Lodge. In this short paper, written by Wor. James Hammond, the author explains how the Age of Enlightenment moved man away from the idea of being ruled by kings to that of self-government, and the principles of Masonry go hand-in-hand with that idea. We need to continue to teach those principles to each new generation.
