Who are Internet Lodge No: 9659?

Internet Lodge 9659 is a regular lodge under the United Grand Lodge of England, being very special due to a wide diversity of languages and cultures.

How do they meet?

They meet physically three times per year in various locations in England but between meetings much of their work is taking place on line, via their e-mail list and web site.

Members are in contact on a daily basis working to do projects together, to share their Masonic knowledge, to visit each other, to become involved in charity activities or just to spend quality friendship moments together.

A fourth meeting being a fraternal visit to a different country can be decided by the Worshipful Master.

Meeting locations are chosen every year by the incoming Worshipful Master as mentioned also in his Manifesto.

Future meetings can be found on this page: https://internet.lodge.org.uk/index.php/futuremeetingsil
