✨ A Night for the History Books ✨
Thursday, July 30, 2026, will forever be remembered as a milestone in the history of Jacksonville Lodge No. 422. It marked not only the first Entered Apprentice Degree in our lodge, but also the beginning of Brother Allyson’s Masonic journey as he took his first step into the fraternity.
What started as a candidate’s curiosity and interest has now led him down a path of brotherhood, self-discovery, and growth. His first step has been taken, and the journey ahead is now his to explore.
The evening began with great fellowship and an amazing meal of chicken, pancit, lumpia, ribs, and rice before we gathered in the lodge room for an outstanding degree. A special thank you to R.W. Tony Chavez for delivering an exceptional lecture and to our degree team for their hard work and dedication.
We also extend our sincere thanks to all of the brothers and newly initiated Entered Apprentices who joined us for this historic occasion. Your presence made the evening even more special.
As we reflect on this memorable night, we are proud of what our Jacksonville Lodge No. 422 has accomplished and excited for what lies ahead. The future is bright, and we look forward to welcoming many more brothers in the years to come. ✨
