WHAT IS MASONRY?
The world’s FIRST and largest FRATERNAL organization. Guided by the enduring belief that each man has a responsibility to make the world a better place. For over 300 years, FREEMASONRY has enhanced and strengthened the character of individual men by providing OPPORTUNITIES for FELLOWSHIP, CHARITY, and the search for truth among other things – within ourselves and the larger world.
OUR MISSION AND OUR LODGE
Lemon Grove Lodge’s mission is to promote GROWTH and IMPROVE lives. We take RESPONSIBILITY for the WELL-BEING of our Brothers, our Families, and the Community as a whole. We value RESPECT, KINDNESS, TOLERANCE, and our DIFFERENCES. We focus more and strive for HARMONY among Brethren, improve our individual lives, SUPPORT OUR LODGE and the COMMUNITY.
Our monthly STATED MEETING is held on the first Monday of each month and starts at 6 PM (PST). Throughout the year, our lodge organizes various events, including social occasions. Some events are for members only, while many also include our families.
REWARDS OF BEING A FREEMASON
Making true friends
MASONRY is a community of men and their families who SHARE SIMILAR BELIEFS and VALUES. The fraternity finds it IMPORTANT TO CONNECT with other MEN OF HONOR, COMPASSION, RESPECT, and TRUST regardless of their Race, Color, Religious Beliefs, Political Views, and National Origin. We gained TRUE FIENDS AND BROTHERS and are CONNECTED through this vital and uplifting organization of MORAL MEN.
Improving Ourselves
Our continuing PURSUIT OF TRUTH, DEEPER KNOWLEDGE, VALUABLE ETHICS, and LEADERSHIP SKILLS make us BETTER MEN and bring MORE MEANING to our lives. Learning the TENETS of Freemasonry paired with being an active part of our community, allows us to develop leadership and organizational skills and builds SELF-DISCIPLINE through COMMITMENT and self-confidence.
Having an impact
As a member of the Freemasons, the Grand Lodge of California and Lemon Grove Lodge No. 736, we are a PART OF A WORLDWIDE ORGANIZATION that VALUES TRADITION, HISTORY, and TIMELESS WISDOM. The traditions and CORE VALUES of our fraternity are MEANINGFUL TODAY and WILL ENDURE FOR CENTURIES TO COME because of our direct impact on our community, through our charities, and on a personal level.
