Metropolitan, Provincial and District Grand Officers and holders of Metropolitan Grand Rank visiting by command

Provincial or District Grand Masters have the authority to appoint any of their current or past Provincial or District Grand Officers to visit Lodges within their jurisdiction at their discretion. The visiting Officer is positioned immediately to the right of the presiding Brother during the visit. Similarly, a Metropolitan Grand Master can designate any of his current Metropolitan Grand Officers, holders of Senior Metropolitan Grand Rank, Metropolitan Grand Rank, or Past Metropolitan Grand Stewards to visit Lodges within the Metropolitan Area. This practice facilitates the presence of senior Masonic leadership at Lodge meetings, promoting engagement and oversight within the organization. The document emphasizes the importance of maintaining proper decorum and hierarchy during such visits, ensuring that the visiting Officers are accorded appropriate respect and recognition.
