Spring 2025 Issue Out Now: 175 Years
In this issue of California Freemason, we’re celebrating 175 years of incredible Masonic history in this state.
A part of the Santa Rosa community, our Lodge was founded in 1855.
Meetings: 1st Thursday of every month at 7:30pm
855 7th St, Santa Rosa, CA 95404 Office (707) 526-5758
Our rituals are steeped in tradition, history, and philosophy. Yet the state of Masonry today is vibrant, bringing our members together in fellowship, and yes, making good men better.
We place emphasis on the individual man by strengthening his character. We are actively engaged in the community through charity and volunteerism. We gather socially, sometimes with large festive dinners, sometimes just a few of the guys getting together.
One of the universal doctrines of Freemasonry is the belief in the Brotherhood of Man and the importance of God. Each Mason practices the three principal tenets of Masonry: Brotherly Love, Relief and Truth.
Masonry is a community of men and their families who share similar beliefs and values. The fraternity finds it important to connect with other men of honor, compassion, love, trust, and knowledge, regardless of their race, color, religious beliefs, political views, sexual orientation, physical ability, citizenship, or national origin. We are friends and brothers, and are connected through this vital and uplifting organization of moral men.
Our continuing pursuit of truth, knowledge, ethics, and leadership skills makes us better men and brings more meaning to our lives. Learning the tenets of Freemasonry, paired with being an active part of our community, gives us the opportunity to develop leadership and organizational skills, and builds self-discipline through commitment and self-confidence.
As a member of the Freemasons, the Grand Lodge of California, and Santa Rosa Luther Burbank Lodge No. 57, we are a part of a worldwide organization that values tradition, history, and timeless wisdom. The traditions and core values of our fraternity are meaningful today and will endure for centuries to come because of our direct impact in our community, through our charities, and on a personal level.
Santa Rosa Luther Burbank Lodge membership is open to men 18 and older who meet the qualifications and standards of character and intention, and who believe in a Supreme Being. Men of all ethnic and religious backgrounds are welcome.
One of Freemasonry’s customs is not to solicit members – men must seek membership on their own initiative. Anyone is welcome to request information about the fraternity.
If you are interested in applying for membership to our lodge, now is a good time to start. Please contact us to schedule a visit during an event, or request more information.
