Values

What could Freemasonry Provide Me Personally?

The Provincial Grand Lodge of the Eastern Cape Division, founded in 2002, is committed to fostering Brotherly Love, Relief, and Truth among our Brethren throughout the Eastern Cape. Overseeing five craft lodges, we champion Brotherly Love as the foundation of our fraternity, promoting steadfast support and inclusivity. Through charitable acts and community service, we embody our dedication to Relief, aiming for both personal and communal advancement. In our pursuit of Truth, we engage in open dialogue and the sharing of knowledge, enabling us to excel as leaders, active community members, and responsible citizens of our nation.
