This evening Mr Luke Shephard and Mr Gabrielle Mier joined Henllys Lodge, becoming Brother Luke and Brother Gabrielle. With the Provincial Grand Master present the Worshipful Master, W. Bro. David Coleman, ably supported by his officers performed an excellent ceremony initiating our two newly made Brothers into Freemasonry. The welcome continued after the ceremony at a well attended Festive Board with numerous visiting Brethren.

Henllys Lodge presented a cheque to the Monmouthshire Light Blues of £1,000 for Teddies For Loving Care (TLC).
“A hospital visit can be frightening for a young child, especially in an emergency situation. Teddies for Loving Care (TLC) is a way of providing much-needed comfort to children attending A&E Units, helping to reduce their anxiety and improve their experience of hospitals. Every child that receives a teddy gets to take it home.”

A Historic Night for Kennard Lodge 1258

A Historic Night for Kennard Lodge 1258

On 28/01/2028 Kennard Lodge 1258 made history by initiating three Entered Apprentices in a single evening—a first for our Lodge in Living Memory! This momentous occasion was not only a testament to the growth of our Lodge but also a reminder of the strength and unity within Freemasonry.

The evening was further enriched by the presence of visiting brethren from NIOBA Lodge, Armed Forces Lodge, and the Province, whose support and camaraderie added to the significance of the event. Their attendance underscored the strong bonds that connect Masons across lodges and the brotherhood it creates.

We extend a heartfelt welcome to our newest brothers as they begin their Masonic journey. The path ahead is one of learning, growth, and fraternity, and we look forward to guiding and supporting them every step of the way.

A huge thank you to everyone who made the evening such a success—our officers, visiting brethren, and members who continue to uphold the values of Freemasonry with dedication and integrity.

Here’s to a bright future for Kennard Lodge 1258 and our new Entered Apprentices!

Kennard Lodge Installation 2024

Kennard Lodge 1258 has returned a well deserved the summer recess with renewed energy and enthusiasm for the upcoming masonic year.

Our first lodge meeting of the year was an significant and memorable event, an Installation. W.Bro Clint Fisher installed into the Worshipful Masters chair by W.Bro Martin Phillips, and the ceremony was marked by its traditional grandeur and was attended by numerous brethren from several lodges within the Province of Monmouthshire.

Among the distinguished guests were R.W. Bro Richard Davies, Provincial Grand Master, and V.W. Bro Chris Evans, Deputy Provincial Grand Master, whose presence added an air of solemnity and honor to the occasion. Their continued support and guidance are invaluable to the lodge, and their participation underscored the importance of the evening.

The evening did not end with the formalities of the installation, after the ceremony, the brethren gathered for a festive board that was, as always, one of the highlights of the evening. The atmosphere was filled with brotherhood, laughter, and reflection on the night’s significance. Brothers enjoyed a delightful meal, wonderful toasts, and great food.

As we look ahead to the upcoming year, this installation sets the tone for what promises to be an inspiring and productive Masonic year. We welcome W. Bro Clint Fisher to his new role with full confidence and look forward to the leadership and guidance he will provide for our lodge following a wonderful year lead by W.Bro Martin Phillips.

Here’s to a successful year ahead!
