Happy Father’s Day from the Province of Cheshire Freemasons

Today, we celebrate the fathers, grandfathers, stepfathers, guardians, mentors, and father figures who offer guidance, support, and care to those around them.

We also recognise that this day can bring mixed emotions. We hold in our thoughts those who are remembering a father they have lost, those who are separated from loved ones, and those for whom Father’s Day is a difficult time.

Happy Father’s Day to all who celebrate. 💙

saw Cheshire Brethren Enjoy a Fantastic Day at Grand Lodge

🚆 Around 40 Cheshire Freemasons travelled to London on Wednesday to attend the Quarterly Communication at United Grand Lodge of England, joining brethren from across the Constitution for another memorable occasion at Freemasons' Hall.

🌟The day began with the Quarterly Communication in Grand Lodge, providing an opportunity to witness the ceremonial splendour and traditions that make Freemasonry so unique.

🤝For many, these visits offer a chance not only to experience Grand Lodge proceedings first hand but also to spend time with friends from across Cheshire and beyond.

🍻Following the meeting, the Cheshire contingent gathered at Philomena's, directly opposite Freemasons' Hall, where refreshments and plenty of good conversation were enjoyed.

🍽️ The fellowship continued as the group made the short walk to Big Easy Covent Garden for lunch, where an excellent meal, plenty of laughter, and the usual good humoured banter ensured that everyone had a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon.

⏭️ A wonderful time was had by all, and our thanks go to everyone who attended and helped make the day such a success. We look forward to seeing even more Cheshire brethren join us on future visits to Grand Lodge.
