Comments Off on Why Dover Lodge?

Why Dover Lodge?

Many men seek the Light of Freemasonry, and quickly find that The Craft is truly thriving in the State of Ohio. The seeker of Masonic wisdom and initiation suddenly finds himself confronted with a glorious problem: which Lodge is right for me? Truly every Lodge is different in its character and mission. At Dover Lodge #489, our goal is to be a deeply educational and esoteric body that fosters profound Masonic growth.

To wit, the excerpt below was penned by W.L. Wilmshurst in the early 1900s. Our Brother was a past Grand Lodge Officer in the United Grand Lodge of England. His expression of what is needed in Freemasonry reflects beautifully the mission of Dover Lodge. Why join us? Read on as our Brother explains…

“No more needed and useful work is to be done in the Masonic Order to-day than the education of its members in the true purpose of rites of initiation, that they may the better appreciate the reason, the importance, and the seriousness, of the work the Order was designed to achieve.

Candidate Appreciation Barbecue

Today at 6:00pm is our Dover Lodge Candidate Appreciation Barbecue! We have invited all Dover Lodge petitioners and Brethren who have not yet reached the degree of Master Mason to join us for a cookout and fellowship at Lodge. There will be two education sessions: one that gives an overview of all of the bodies of Freemasonry, and another that shares what one can expect to receive from their dedication to our Craft.

Cigars, fine libations, and the joy of our Royal Art will take us well into the night. See you there Brethren!
