Secretary / Scribe E
Information and Resources for Craft Lodge Secretaries and Royal Arch Scribe Ezras
The role of Secretary/Scribe Ezra is a very important one. The Lodge secretary/scribe E handles all the administration and keeps a record of the proceedings. He is responsible for issuing the summons for each meeting and making returns to Grand and Provincial Grand Lodge/Chapter. It is also his duty to assist the Worshipful Master/Principles in the smooth running of the Lodge/Chapter and to help him to enjoy his year in the chair.
The jewel is two quill pens in saltire.
