The Philadelphes #9 Lodge was founded on October 7, 1975 under the guidance of The Great Lodge of Haiti of 1961. To date, the Lodge boasts 25 active members from around the New-York state, and the country.
Masonry is a values-centered organization which affords like-minded men, opportunities to share similar values, hopes and concerns, for ourselves, our families, and our communities.
The purpose and function of the Philadelphes #9 Lodge, is to provide a forum for the study, discussion and diffusion of Masonic knowledge, and to promote interest in speculative Masonry. Our Lodge deals not only with the philosophical aspects of Masonry, but also with the problems confronting the craft and the challenges for the future. Our Lodge has a preference for men of good character, and has no regard for differences in color, race, religion, creed, or station in life. Using traditions and implements of antiquity, it seeks to inspire its members to live by the tenets of brotherly Love and Truth.
