Welcome to this dedicated page for all fellow Freemasons, with a special focus on the Master Masons of Mt. Moriah Lodge #18, F&AM. Our lodge, located in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, proudly stands as one of the busiest and largest lodges in the state, boasting a membership of over 450 individuals.
At Mt. Moriah Lodge #18, our mission is centered around the belief in a supreme being and the principles of accountability. We are committed to the continuous improvement of good men, striving to uplift their character and values. As Freemasons, we embrace an unbreakable bond of genuine affection, acknowledging our responsibility to alleviate the distress of others. Our purpose lies in comforting the troubled, empathizing with their hardships, showing compassion towards their sorrows, and bringing peace to their troubled minds. It is upon this foundation that we forge friendships and establish lasting connections.
Having officially opened our doors on May 26, 1817, Mt. Moriah Lodge #18 holds the distinguished honor of being the oldest society in the town of Murfreesboro. As Freemasons, we are part of a global fraternity that dates back to the late 16th or early 17th century, representing the world's oldest and largest fraternal society.
The founding members of Murfreesboro's oldest lodge, including Capt. William Lytle, Joshua Haskell, James McDowell, Jonas Bell, and John Fisher, laid the groundwork for the establishment of Mt. Moriah Lodge. In 1856, following a devastating fire that consumed the Murfreesboro Lodge, Mt. Moriah Lodge merged with Murfreesboro Lodge No. 205, reinforcing our commitment to unity and shared purpose.
We welcome all Freemasons to join us in our pursuit of personal growth, fraternity, and the noble endeavor of making a positive impact on the world around us.
