WELCOME to the
TENNESSEE COUNCIL OF
DELIBERATION web site. Tennessee’s rich Scottish Rite
heritage is now fifty-six years old and our Council of Deliberation
continues on the path of progress.
Tennessee being a
State of considerable length, the Orient was divided into 3
divisions with a Sectional Council of Deliberation established in
the East, Middle and West divisions. The Deputy appoints an Area
Coordinator for each Section who coordinates activities between the
Consistories in that area. The Deputy maintains close communication
with the Coordinators and schedules a visit to each division at
least once per year. Each Consistory has an opportunity to host the
Sectional Council of Deliberation session within its division. The
sessions are not restricted to members of that section and the
Fraters often attend sessions in the other divisions. Additionally,
the Tennessee State Council of Deliberation meets each year in
conjunction with our Grand Lodge session.
Those of you that
visited our web site early on will instantly recognize that we have
made some changes and added new material. We will continue to work
to increase its potential to share information and communicate with
Scottish Rite Men and Ladies around the globe.
Our Orient has
been selected as the site for the 124th Annual session of
the United Supreme Council in 2K10. We are certainly cognizant of
this great honor and it is not one that we will take lightly. We
will spare no effort to make certain that you are received royally
and treated graciously during your visit. We will have information
pertinent to the upcoming session available for you on our web site
so, check us out often for updates.
I hope you enjoy
our site and will look in on us frequently. Thank you for visiting.
Spes Mea In Deo
Est,
S.G.I.G. Arvin W. Glass 33o
Illustrious Grand Deputy for Tennessee
