Meritorious Service Award M.S.A.

The Supreme Council Constitutions provide that the Meritorious Service Award may be conferred upon members of the Rite who have attained the 32° and by reasons of meritorious services of a Masonic Character are worthy of such recognition. A recipient must be unanimously recommended by the presiding officers of the four Scottish Rite bodies and approval of the Illinois Council of Deliberation. The Meritorious Service Award is the highest honor that a Council of Deliberation is authorized to confer.
