What are my responsibilities? Moreover, I found myself clueless about the Furniture and Ornaments within the Lodge. I even struggled to recall the Steps of an Entered Apprentice and the correct grip. Despite these challenges, I consoled myself, assuming that all newly initiated Entered Apprentices faced similar uncertainties. I hoped the more seasoned brethren in my lodge would be understanding of my inexperience, but the experience remained rather intimidating.Since that day, I have been dedicated to guiding and mentoring new initiates, helping ease their transition into Freemasonry and fostering confidence within the lodge.
