Blue Lodge

A Blue Lodge is the foundational organization of Freemasonry, typically consisting of local Masonic brothers who meet regularly to conduct ceremonies, discuss moral and ethical topics, and promote fellowship. It is called "Blue" to distinguish it from higher Masonic degrees and organizations. The lodge emphasizes personal development, charity, and community service, following symbolic teachings derived from ancient stonemasons’ guilds. Members work through rituals that highlight virtues like integrity, brotherhood, and self-improvement. Overall, a Blue Lodge serves as a community based on shared values, fostering personal growth and responsible citizenship among its members.
