Building Legacies: Freemasonry and Marine Family Support

In 1925, John A. Lejeune Lodge No. 350, chartered by the Grand Lodge of Virginia, became a living testament to both Freemasonry and the legacy of Lieutenant General John Archer Lejeune, a distinguished Marine Corps leader. General Lejeune's remarkable career, spanning WWI and his role as the 13th Commandant of the Marine Corps, intertwined with Freemasonry when he became a Master Mason in post-WWI Coblenz, Germany.

Fast forward almost a century, and the San Dimas Masonic Lodge proudly continues the tradition of linking Freemasonry and the Marine Corps by supporting the Pelican Pantry on 29 Palms Marine Corps Base. This pantry assists junior enlisted Marine Corps and Navy families. 

On September 30th, from 9 AM to 3 PM, our Lodge will host the Food Drive organized by the Satellite Rotary Club of Military Family Support for the third time. We call on all to contribute food staples, hygiene products, and baby supplies. Help us make a difference for the families of those who have serve.
