  • Discover Freemasonry in Suffolk INTEGRITY FRIENDSHIP RESPECT CHARITY What Are Your Guiding Principles?
    Discover Freemasonry in Suffolk INTEGRITY FRIENDSHIP RESPECT CHARITY What are your guiding principles? Freemasons use four important guiding principles to help define their path through life: integrity, friendship, respect and charity. In today’s world filled with uncertainty, these principles ring as true as they have at any point in the organisation’s history. One of the oldest social and charitable organisations in the world, Freemasonry’s roots lie in the traditions of the medieval stonemasons who built our cathedrals and castles. “I was encouraged into Freemasonry by my neighbour having been kindly invited to his Ladies’ Night. I loved the formality, traditions and warmth of friendship. Unlike many, I have no known family members as Freemasons, but as you would expect, immediately welcomed in to the fraternal arms of Freemasonry.” DORIC LODGE, WOODBRIDGE 2 Membership is open to people from all backgrounds and the organisation’s aim is to empower members to be the best they can be – it’s about building character, supporting members as individuals, and helping them make a positive contribution to society. “Freemasonry provides a unique environment for people from all backgrounds to learn skills, form lasting friendships, achieve their potential and above all, have FUN.” PHOENIX LODGE, STOWMARKET Freemasonry provides a structure for members to come together under these common goals, enabling people to make new friendships, develop themselves and make valuable contributions to charitable causes. 3 INTEGRITY: Building good people Rather than working on buildings like the masons of old, today’s Freemasons focus on building themselves as people of integrity, and membership provides the structure to help achieve that goal.

  • Lockdown Edition
    The Suffolk Freemasons Magazine May 2020 FORUM Lockdown Edition... Dear All, Extraordinary times? Well I think we all agree that this is the mother of them all. The resilience of one and all is remarkable and the guidelines have thus far been followed. I am typing this message on VE day having just been reminded of how those before us coped to allow us many of the privileges that we benefit from today. Within this electronic edition of Forum my focus is of course on Freemasonry and our brethren and families. We have seen many outstanding acts of kindness given by so many of our Brethren to so many causes as well as the people around them and your thoughtfulness is very much appreciated. Trying to keep ourselves together as Lodges could become another challenge for us to consider, but after my first health check of our Lodges, I cannot believe for one moment that this may present a problem now, or at any time in the future. The Zoom meetings that are already taking place probably means that none of our Lodges will not have missed more than one gathering each. Visual contact adds a great deal to these meetings and whilst individuals are sharing regular phone calls, it means we can stay in touch, update and inform, and most importantly, share a smile. I strongly believe that not having our meeting of the Province on May 29th and congratulating those Brethren who have worked so hard for their pending honours, would be a travesty, so I plan to hold a virtual meeting on Zoom for all the brethren who are to be recognised for their achievements on that very day.
