The Independence Lodge A.F. & A.M.

The lodge was chartered as the first bilingual lodge in Massachusetts. The Lodge was formed as the result of a project by the Masonic Leadership Institute (MLI). Among its goals are to strengthen the ties of the Brazilian community with Freemasonry, and to strengthen our Masonic ties to our Brazilian brethren to the south.

The lodge welcome all brethren; however, those of Brazilian descent are especially encouraged to attend. Some of our meetings are held in Portuguese, and others are held in English.
