Huachuca Lodge No. 53
Free and Accepted Masons of Arizona
About Us
Welcome to Huachuca Lodge #53, located in Sierra Vista, Arizona, near the historic Fort Huachuca. Our Lodge holds its stated meetings on the first Wednesday of each month at 7:00 PM, with dinner beforehand at 6:00 PM. Huachuca Lodge blends modern society with the timeless teachings of Freemasonry, led by a dynamic group of young leaders mentored by experienced Brothers, many of whom have military backgrounds. This strong military connection helps us plan and modernize effectively.
​
In addition to our Masonic work, we are proud to host Sunrise Assembly No. 39 of the International Order of the Rainbow for Girls. This youth organization, dedicated to developing leadership and community service skills in young women, holds its meetings at our Lodge, fostering the next generation of leaders with strong Masonic ties.

Our Work
The earliest known Masonic texts, referred to as the "Old Charges" or "Gothic Constitutions," dated from around 1390 to the mid-1700s. These writings detail a mason’s obligations to God, his employer, his family, and society. Rev. Dr. James Anderson later distilled these principles in the 1723 introduction to the "Book of Constitutions." For operative masons, the "Old Charges" included helping fellow masons by providing a few weeks of work and shelter. In speculative Masonry, they encouraged aiding those in need and practicing charity toward all people. In keeping with these traditions, here are some of the organizations Huachuca Lodge No. 53 supports in our local community HERE
In the bond of fraternal love, we believe all men can embrace who they are, can define their future, and can make a positive impact on the world.
