Masonry Universal Lodge was consecrated in July 1955 to serve the Masonic needs of the English-speaking community in the Geneva region. Its founders obtained agreement from the national Grand Lodge to work, in English, the three Emulation degrees familiar to many English Masons. Over the subsequent years, the Lodge maintained an average membership of between 40 and 50 in a transient, multicultural and multinational environment. Today, we are over 60 members. Subject to Public Holidays, our regular meetings take place at 3 rue Firmin-Massot, 1206 Geneva, on the second Monday of the month (October to May inclusive), starting at 7.00 pm. The signature book is available from 6.30 pm. The Installation Meeting usually takes place on the third Saturday in June, starting at 3.00 pm. We do not normally meet during July, August and September. Masonry acts for the benefit of society as well as the self-development of its members. If you are a just, upright and free man, of mature age, sound judgment and strict morals, consider Freemasonry as a way to help make yourself a better man, and the world a better place. If you are already a Freemason, and are relocating to the Geneva area or simply visiting the city, please feel free to contact us for further information. If you are interested in Freemasonry and have explored the links available to you - including those in this web site - you may also contact us for further information.
News
We continued our new Masonic year with another double Third Degree ceremony on 10 November, as planned. It was extremely well attended, with over forty in the Temple for the ceremony. Sadly, because of the length of the meeting, many had to leave before the Festive Board. The work was undertaken by Past Masters, who had no excuse for any errors. As it happened, however, nobody noticed any errors, which is a reflection of the quality of the work that the Lodge is capable of delivering. Don't forget that we have a joint ("Inter-Lodge") meeting with Hiram on Monday 17 November at our Temple, where the focus will be on providing instruction for our Fellowcraft - and those of any other Lodge who will be very welcome. The evening will be conducted in French. The traditional Escalade meeting will be held AT THE OTHER TEMPLE (rue de la Scie), not our usual venue. Please see the Schedule of Events on Page 3. If you are a member, we expect to see you at our meetings. Having joined our Lodge, we are keen to see you participate in its activities. As a visitor, we look forward to welcoming you to one - or more - of our meetings. Please check the schedule in this web site and contact us for further information. Thank you for your virtual visit. We hope to see you in person very soon. Please come again soon!
