A Historic Masonic Journey Across Chile

During his recent visit to Chile, our District Grand Master, Rt. W. Bro. Richard Cooper, attended the Installation Meeting of Straits of Magellan Lodge No. 10069 in Punta Arenas, the southernmost Lodge under the United Grand Lodge of England (UGLE).

He then traveled to Valparaíso to attend the Installation Meeting of The Lodge of Harmony No. 1411. The event concluded with a gathering at the home of Nany, widow of the late W. Bro. John MacGregor. This warm reception, a cherished tradition during her late husband’s lifetime, is now graciously kept alive by his widow.

Finally, the journey concluded in the capital city of Santiago de Chile, where the District Grand Master attended the Installation Ceremony of the new Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Chile, M.W. Bro. Juan Eduardo Urrutia Bordegaray. This memorable visit further strengthened the historic fraternal bonds between English and Chilean Freemasonry.

Celebrating fellowship and brotherhood in our District.

Our District Grand Master, W. Bro. Richard Cooper, gathered members and guests for a special evening aimed at strengthening fraternal bonds, honoring our Light Blue Masons, and connecting with prospective candidates.

It was a night where British tradition, Freemasonry, and culture came together. Attendees enjoyed a fantastic Scottish bagpipe performance by W. Bro. Rodrigo Saler and Bro. Leonardo Mackerlie.

The perfect finale to a night of friendship came as everyone sang "Auld Lang Syne," written by our Brother Robert Burns. Thank you to everyone who made this evening so memorable!

A Historic Milestone for the Royal Arch in Paraguay

Our Deputy Grand Superintendent, E.Comp. Richard Cooper, participated in the Convocation to receive Reddish Chapter No. 3615 into the District Grand Chapter of South America, Southern Division. Originally consecrated in England in 1926, the Chapter has officially transferred its charter to Asunción, Paraguay, marking the first time the Holy Royal Arch has been established in the country.

During this landmark ceremony, the new Principals were formally installed: E.Comp. Jonathan Igulden as First Principal, E.Comp. Derlis Acosta as Second Principal, and E.Comp. Pablo Lesme as Third Principal. The arrival of this prestigious Chapter—long awaited and achieved through the dedicated effort of many Companions—is a significant milestone for English Freemasonry in the region, reflecting the growth and expansion of our District in this new era.
