ADDRESS BY THE MASTER BROTHER PETROS K.

On the 6th of December 2023 I had the honour and the pleasure to be installed as Master of Partick St Mary’s Lodge No. 117.

Being Greek I had the privilege to experience the appreciation and friendship of my Scottish friends and Brethren for years. More importantly I have been very proud and honoured to be a Freemason in Scotland, in the birthplace of Freemasonry.

I would warmly welcome any man of good standing who would consider becoming a Freemason to message us without hesitation. The Masonic experience is a privilege and a blessing which makes good men even better.

Yours Fraternally

Brother Petros K.
Master

About Us

Partick St. Mary”s Lodge No. 117 was Chartered by the ‘Grand Lodge of Scotland’ on 29th March 1769 and therefore has an unbroken history and tradition of over Two Hundred and Forty Nine years.

The Lodge is situated in the heart of Glasgow’s cosmopolitan and popular West End, a stone’s throw from Glasgow University, the only other local institution which can lay claim to being older than the Lodge.

Presently we meet at the Masonic Temple,  92 Dumbarton Road, Partick, Glasgow G11 6NX , where the Lodge has met without,
break since 1908.

In 2008 we commemorated our hundredth year within the Hall with a Re-consecration of our Temple.
The Lodge in its present form is diverse and eclectic in its membership and in the universal nature of our institution, has inclusive of its membership Greek, Romanian, French, Dutch and Ghanaian in addition to its indigenous Brethren.

The Lodge meets on the First and Third Wednesday of each month from September to May and endeavours to sustain a varied programme of activities.

Likewise, as Freemasons, we all have an obligation to undertake charitable activities in the wider community and a list of those charitable donations
are listed
