Greenwich, NY – Ashlar Lodge #584 hosted a remarkable event on Tuesday, November 19, 2024, as three candidates took a significant step forward in their Masonic journey. The Lodge conferred the Fellowcraft Degree, the second step in the progression of Freemasonry, before an audience of 20 Brothers who gathered to support and celebrate this meaningful occasion.

The Fellowcraft Degree emphasizes personal growth, the pursuit of knowledge, and the application of moral principles in daily life. It challenges candidates to deepen their understanding of the symbolic lessons of Freemasonry, drawing upon disciplines like the sciences, arts, and architecture as metaphors for building a life of integrity and wisdom.

“This degree is a cornerstone of Masonic learning,” said the Lodge Master. “It reminds us that our growth as Masons—and as individuals—is a continual journey. The dedication shown by the candidates and the support of our Brothers reflect the enduring spirit of our fraternity.”

Ashlar Lodge would like to extend its gratitude to everyone who participated in and supported the evening’s ceremonies. Events like this are vital to upholding the rich traditions and timeless principles of Freemasonry.
