Del Mar Masonic Lodge 1350

Del Mar Lodge 1350 is a constituent Lodge of the Grand Lodge of Texas. Our members belong to what is believed to be the oldest surviving fraternal organization in the world, the exact date of its founding is uncertain. They are known by various names— Freemasons, Masons, Craft, and Blue Lodge Masons. Membership is restricted to men. It exists to take good men and help them to become better men.
Excerpts from the Grand Lodge summarize some of the tenants of our fraternity:
Masonry does require of its adherents a belief in God and in life after death, though it asks no one to expound upon the particulars of his understanding of those two beliefs. Masonry is not a religion. There is nothing in Freemasonry to interfere with a man's religious life. Persons of all faiths and Christian denominations are a part of the worldwide Masonic fraternity. Religion and politics are two subjects not allowed to be discussed when a lodge is in session. Masonry teaches the importance of helping the less fortunate. It especially stresses care for the widows and orphans of Masons.
Texas Masonry now looks to the future with the hope that a better understanding will allow the lodge to take its rightful place in every Texas community, right alongside of the church, the home, the schools, and the civic organizations as a positive force for good. With this better understanding there is every reason to believe that we can all work together to make our government, our schools and our churches even stronger than before. The strength of Texas has always been built upon the combined efforts of all these groups, and the Grand Lodge of Texas has contributed valuable service to our churches, our nation, our state and our community.
