A meeting of present and former members of the
Boys' Brigade was held on Monday 28th May 1986
to discuss the possible formation of a new
Masonic Lodge. There were 17 brethren present
and 7 apologies were received.
Our number "619" is a special one as it refers
to Hebrews Chapter 6, verse 19. "Which hope we
have an anchor of the soul both Sure and Stedfast"
The then Provincial Grand Secretary of Antrim,
knowing the significance of the number to the
Boys' Brigade, became aware that the warrant
was available, as it had been returned to
Dublin following the closure of a Lodge in
Rhodesia.
The lodge was constituted on Saturday 19th
March 1988 by the Provincial Grand Master of
Antrim, R. W. Bro. R. L. Orr, in the presence
of the M. W. the Grand Master of the Grand
Lodge of Ireland, the R. W. Asst. Grand Master
and the R. W. the Grand Secretary, and
representatives from a total of 106 lodges. |
