Every Worshipful Master faces the same challenge: honoring deceased brethren with dignity while managing a full year of lodge duties. The Lodge of Sorrow offers an elegant, time-saving solution used by lodges across the Craft.

This solemn ritual allows your Lodge to open a Lodge of Sorrow at the beginning of the Master’s term. It remains open for the entire year, so you can attend or conduct funerals without repeatedly opening and closing the Lodge at the hall before and after each service.

In this clear, dignified audio recording you will hear the complete instructions for opening the Lodge of Sorrow in Due and Ancient Form, including:

• The Worshipful Master’s declaration of purpose
• Closing the Great Lights after opening
• The proper procedure at the end of the year when installing new officers: purging the Lodge, displaying the Great Lights, and closing the Lodge of Sorrow in Due and Ancient Form

All actions are to be recorded in the minutes, including the names and dates of departed brethren.

Whether you are a newly installed Worshipful Master preparing for your year, a Senior Deacon, Secretary, or any officer wanting to perform this ritual with confidence and accuracy — this recording is an essential reference and powerful study tool.

Listen repeatedly. Internalize the words. Lead your Lodge with calm authority and Masonic propriety.
