Dedication the Grand Temple
LARKSPUR, COLORADO | 1 August 2009 |

Since the completion of the Headquarters Building in 1924 American Co-Masonry has been looking to expand its facilities due to growth and ritualistic needs. Breaking ground in 2007 the foundations of a new temple, The Grand Temple of American Co-Masonry were poured. After many years of diligent work by the membership, both in work and funding, the Grand Temple was completed and dedicated on 1st of August, 2009 by the Most Soveriegn Grand Commander, The Very Ills. Bro Magdalena I. Cumsille. Freemasons from around the world attended the special event in which the Temple was dedicated and consecrated to The Great Architect of the Universe. The new Temple marks the beginning of a new era in American Co-Masonry. May the temple be a beacon of light to all those seeking the upward path of service.

Eulogy of The Very Ills. Bro. Betty Bunner
LARKSPUR, COLORADO | 4 April 2008 |

We are assembled on this day to honor the departure of our Dear Brother, Betty Louise Bunner. She was summoned to the Grand Lodge Eternal to continue the Great Work. But, BB, let us try not to grieve, for her passing can be one of joy. As she was in life, so let her be in death; an emblem of faithful service and happiness. Let us allow her deeds to inspire each and everyone of us to become a better Freemason. By giving a helping hand and a smile, her only hope was to give us a bit of her love.

"On Holy Ground: The History of the Honorable Order of American Co-Masonry, the American Federation of Human Rights", tells an intricate story of Co-Masonry in North America.

Read this book to learn more about the story of Co-Masonry. "On Holy Ground" begins with a brief retelling Freemasonry's story; traces women's early entry into the Operative Masonic guilds and Speculative otherwise all-male Freemasonic Lodges; explains women's unfair exclusion from the Craft; and the rise in Europe of Co-Masonry, which finally swung the doors open to female initiates. "On Holy Ground" introduces the reader to the earliest Co-Masons and the founders of their Orders throughout the world.
