Mission Statement

The Mission

This Masonic Research Lodge (established 2005) was created to assist Masons to achieve the object of their quest since leaving the west. The method is two-pronged:

  1. This Lodge of Research will present educational and instructional products that will enable members to learn about and understand this "beautiful system of morals, veiled in allegory"—Freemasonry.

  2. This Research Lodge will also serve as a Masonic think tank. The Lodge will survey a sample of current events and present papers and other artifacts that represent the perspectives of Prince Hall Masons as men and Masons and contribute to the body of knowledge on the subject.

The Vision

The vision for the Dr. Robert E. Terrell Lodge of Research is a simple one:
“To be a leader in producing information, education, and artifacts that furthers Masonry and the betterment of mankind.
