Last Thursday night (5/22/25), the lights of Masonry shone a bit brighter in Ramsey. Please join us in congratulating our four newest Entered Apprentice Masons, who began their Masonic journey with honor, humility, and strength.

Your commitment to the Craft and to self-improvement marks the beginning of a lifelong journey in Light, Brotherhood, and Truth. Welcome, Brothers — the Lodge stands with you.

A heartfelt thank you to all the brethren who made the evening’s degree work not only possible, but memorable. From the ritual to the fellowship, the energy in the Lodge was inspiring. It’s nights like these that remind us of the power and purpose of our fraternity.
