A.J.E.F. Is an acronym which stands for Association of Youth Hope of the Fraternity (Asociacion de Jovenes Esperanza de la Fraternidad). It is an appendant body to Freemasonry for youth aged 14–21 in México, United States and Latin America. Although initially the local organizations were known as AJEF Lodges, the title has changed to Chapters in order to reinforce the fact that it is not Masonry, but an appendant body. Every chapter is sponsored by a Masonic Lodge, in both economic and moral support. It is equivalent in its focus and function to the Order of DeMolay. Although it is open to both sexes, mixed sessions are forbidden except on special occasions in which there must be a Master Mason present. == Structural Organization == There are a number of regional organizations of Chapters that have yearly meetings in order to appoint small changes in customs and ritual, thus varying pointual aspects. Some of these are: *The Mexico Valley Organization *The Mexican United Grand Lodge of Veracruz. *The Honorable Central Council of Tamaulipas *The Honorable Central Council of Jalisco *The First Central Council of San Luis Potosí (2001) The members of a Chapter or Lodge are: * Guide (Guía) * First adviser (Asesor Primero) * Second adviser (Asesor Segundo) * Scribe (Secretario) * Treasurer * Orator (Orador) * Guardian (Guardián) * Master of Choir (Mestro de Coro) * Leader of Ceremonies (Director de Ceremonias) * Donations Collector (Colector de Obolos) * Steward (Experto) * Banner * Flag Bearer (Portabandera) * Standard Bearer (Portaestandarte) * Instructor(a master mason) (Un Maestro Mason es el Instructor) * Town: the name given to the general participants who do not have a particular position (Pueblo: el nombre que reciben los participantes cuando no tienen una posición en particular) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「A.J.E.F.」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
