WHAT IS FREEMASONRY?

One of the oldest secular social and charitable organisations in the world, modern Freemasonry’s roots lie in the traditions of the medieval stonemasons who built our castles and cathedrals…

The lodge has held several social events such as witnessing the Tower of London Keys ceremony a lady’s festival at a hotel usually outside of London that provides opportunity for our families to enjoy the company that these types of events provide. Importantly we maintain links with the regiment and serving soldiers.

EVENTS

Delve into the rich traditions of Freemasonry as we gather to celebrate our shared values and principles

WHERE WE MEET

Our meetings are held on the 1st Saturday of March, June, September and December, at 60 Great Queen Street, London WC2B 5AZ. they usually start at 11am thus providing members ample time to travel to London to join the meetings. The June meeting is the installation meeting.

ABOUT

The Parachute Regiment Lodge was consecrated on 5th June 1989. Though named for our Regiment the decision was taken not to restrict membership to serving or former members, though the majority do fit that criteria. Our membership is drawn from a wide range of military, security and civilian backgrounds who all adopt our ethos, to be the best in all that we do…

ARENA

Engage in enlightening discussions, partake in meaningful rituals, and forge lasting connections with fellow brethren

The Metropolitan Grand Lodge & Grand Chapter Entry into the Lord Mayor’s Show this year will be highlighting our huge support for London including our donations to the LAA and LFB. This is an exceptional opportunity for us to show the public the excellence and generosity of our unique organisation, and to raise awareness of our continued help and support for others.

For just £150 (that’s only £10 a head from fifteen brethren) your Lodge or Chapter can Sponsor one of your members to take part in this ancient, historic and world famous event which attracts over half a million people each year.

The float will be one of our best entries ever. We will fly two Giant inflatables displaying our name, logo and message with 60 London Freemasons in full regalia who will be carrying banners, parading and interacting with the welcoming crowds.

We extend an invitation to every London Lodge and Chapter to embrace their place in masonic history. Show pride in your Lodge or Chapter by walking with us as part of our entry in this fabulous event.

Immediately after the parade the senior members of Metropolitan Grand Lodge are inviting you, your family & friends to enjoy a White Table Luncheon to celebrate our participation in the Lord Mayor’s pageant. This will be held in the splendid Great Hall at St Bart’s Hospital.

We welcome the broadest participation possible, so please forward this to as many brethren as you can. Sponsored places for both the Parade and the Lunch go very quickly.
