Freemasonry: A System of Morality and Symbols
Freemasonry is the oldest and largest fraternal organization in the world. We teach and live by the three principal tenets of Brotherly Love, Relief, and Truth, the three spiritual virtues of Faith, Hope, and Charity, and the four philosophical virtues of Prudence, Temperance, Fortitude, and Justice. Our members are men of good character who profess a belief in a Supreme Being.

FREEMASONRY AND ACACIA HALL
Acacia Hall was purpose built in 1929 by the members of Acacia Lodge No. 11 as a meeting place for the south side Masonic Lodges. Today, Acacia Hall is home to five of the 115 Craft Lodges of the Grand Lodge of Alberta.
Acacia Lodge No. 11 (2nd Thursdays)
Strathcona Lodge No. 77 (2nd Fridays)

OTHER RELATED ORGANIZATIONS
Acacia Hall has from time to time hosted regular meetings and/or events of other organizations related to but separate from Craft Freemasonry, which we call "appendant and concordant bodies". Those include the Royal Arch Masons, the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, the Shriners, the Order of the Eastern Star (for women), the DeMolay (for young men), and the Job's Daughters (for young women).
Today, aside from occasional events for the above, Acacia Hall is home to Norwood Chapter No. 18, Royal Arch Masons.
