Master's Welcome

Thank you for visiting the San Diego Lodge No. 35 F. & A.M. of the State of California webpage. Our lodge has over 168 years of Masonic history in San Diego and was very instrumental in the formation of the fledgling city back in the 1850’s. We are extremely proud of this heritage, which is one of the oldest and largest lodges in California.

I encourage you to be ever mindful of our history, our present, our future and daily to challenge yourselves on what you can do to become a better person. As you contemplate this I invite each and every one of you to make a daily advance in your Masonic education and in your relationships with each other, your communities and your lives. Bring happiness into others and thereby your own lives by reflecting, respecting and making an impact. Live, love and encourage each other.

In the words of George Washington:

“The grand object of Masonry is to promote the happiness of the human race.”

Consistent with this our 100 In For $100 Plus ccampaign recognizes the first 100 Brothers and Ladies to donate $100 or more through the Lodge in support of San Diego Lodge No. 35's committment to Let's Write the Future. Visit the 100 In For $100 Plus page for more information.

The San Diego 35 Philanthropic Fund is to fund individual and community projects consistent with Masonic Principals and benefitting the San Diego metropolitan region.
