History
A Legacy of Brotherhood Spanning Generations
Our Founding
Established December 2025, our lodge was established by a small group of dedicated Freemasons who sought to bring the light of Masonry to this region. Through decades of growth, we have remained steadfast in our mission.
From humble beginnings to a thriving brotherhood, our history reflects the enduring strength of the Masonic principles that have guided us through generations of service, fellowship, and community leadership.

In Memoriam
Honoring Brothers Who Have Passed to the Celestial Lodge Above
Remembering Our Brothers
We pause to honor the memory of our departed brothers who walked beside us in the light of Masonry. Their lives exemplified the values of our craft — integrity, compassion, and service.
Though they have passed to the Celestial Lodge Above, their legacy endures in the hearts of every brother they touched. Their names will be read aloud at each stated meeting in eternal remembrance.
