Cornerstone Circle
Managed and controlled by Freemasons below Provincial rank for the benefit of all Freemasons the Cornerstone Circle is a fresh, vibrant, social and educational organisation, designed to appeal to young, new and established Freemasons, their families and non-masonic friends alike.
Recently all three of our regional teams representing the North, South and East of the province, have been re-organised and the membership of our WhatsApp groups has already significantly increased by almost 100 new members. The group now led by Ted Law, our new Functional lead plays a significant role in attracting and inviting new members to promote networking & visiting across the province and to help our newer members to have their voice heard in helping to shape the future of Freemasonry, in our province. There is a Cornerstone Circle Facebook page as well as the traditionally established direct communication between Cornerstone Circle reps and individual lodge secretaries – essential for spreading the word.
The Cornerstone Circle is not a lodge and it’s free to join! Members will build strong friendships with like minded brethren and learn more about freemasonry from the newly introduced useful links to L & D & Mentoring.
Event planning is well underway – details of events will be made public as arrangements are firmed up. We’re looking forward to meeting new as well as old friends. There is no right place to start -the important thing is to get started- To find out more about the Cornerstone Circle in your area.
If you are interested in joining the Cornerstone Circle and want to become involved, please contact us for more details - you will be made most welcome.
