The first preliminary meeting was held on the evening of January 7th, 1910. The name chosen for the new Lodge was “Oriental,” and the following brethren were chosen for recommendation to the Grand Master: Brother Austin Sprague Frankenberg for Master; Brother John Lawrence Waring for Senior Warden;  Brother James Erasmus Drane Jr. for Junior Warden. A dispensation to form and open Oriental Lodge was granted and issued by the Most Worshipful Grand Master Frank Thomas, attested by the Very Worshipful, George J. Roskruge, Grand Secretary, on the eighth day of April 1910, and the first meeting under this dispensation was held on April 15th, 1910, at which meeting the Master appointed the following officers: Brother Frank P. Drew, Treasurer Brother Charles L. Diehl, Secretary Brother Alfred L. Hawley, Senior Deacon Brother Donald T. McQueen, Junior Deacon Brother R.J. Albertus Wingar, Marshal Brother John P.

Freemasonry is many things to many people. One way to think about Freemasonry is a system of moral instruction that uses symbols and allegories to teach its principles. The legends and myths of old stone cutters and masons have been woven into interesting and effective ways to portray moral truths. In the modern-day context – Freemasonry is an organized society of men which applies the old tools and principles of masonry to the art and science of character building. What we are NOT We are not a secret society. We are a society with “secrets” which are accessible to members. Masonic secrets generally deal with methods of initiation, ways to recognize each other and little else. These secrets have been handed down by word of mouth for generations. We are not a religion. We do not hold specific creed, dogma or priesthood. We require members to place their faith in a Supreme Being. So, you're interested in Freemasonry... How Do I Become a Mason? Freemasonry in Arizona accepts only those who come of their own free will after having obtained a favorable impression of our fraternity. There are a few requirements
