On May 2nd, 2024, Carmel Lodge #421 raised two worthy brothers to the sublime Degree of a Master Mason. In the ancient and honorable tradition of Freemasonry, the raising of new members to the sublime degree of a Master Mason is a profound and sacred ceremony. It is a journey of enlightenment, a passage from darkness to light, and a testament to the enduring values of brotherhood, integrity, and self-improvement that define our craft.
The Lodge was filled with Masons, not only from Carmel Lodge #421, but visiting brethren from Ancient Landmarks #319, Oakland Lodge #140, Calvin Prather Lodge #717, as well as dignitaries from the Grand Lodge of Indiana. The brethren gathered in fellowship, celebrating the bonds of brotherhood that unite them. The new Master Masons were welcomed into the fraternity with open arms, their journey through the degrees complete, but their journey in Freemasonry just beginning.
So, let us continue to welcome new brethren into our midst, to guide them on their journey, and to uphold the noble principles of our craft. For in doing so, we honor the legacy of those who came before us, and we ensure that Freemasonry will continue to flourish for generations to come.
