In 1988, the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Arkansas began a perpetual and memorial memberhip program in Arkansas. This program allows Lodge members, family members, or friends of deceased masons to make a lasting memorial to the Lodge in memory of a deceased brother. The money is invested by the Grand Lodge and each subordinate lodge receives a dividend check each year based upon the amount of money contributed.

We can think of no greater honor that a member, family member or friend can bestow upon a deceased brother than that of creating a memorial membership. The Brother's name and date will be engraved on a plaque that hangs in the Lodge lobby as well as posted on this site. If you are interested, contact the Lodge secretary and he will assist you in obtaining a memorial membership. Currently, the price is $100. Contact the secretary by clicking here, and he will get back with you.

 
In Remembrance of Our Departed Brothers

 Dedicated with Love to the Memory of our Brethren, Companions, and Sir Knights who have laid down the armor of life and are at Rest!

"Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth; Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors; and their works do follow them."

One by one they pass away - the brothers of our adoption, the companions of our choice. With him we walked the pilgrimage of life and kept watch and ward in its trials and vicissitudes. We remember him in scenes that the world witnessed not, when fraternal feeling was genuiene and undisguised. His virtues linger in our memories and the recollection of his noble qualities is consolation in this hour.

We owe his loving family acknowledgement of his companionship and service and we mingle our tears with theirs at parting from him. There is a destiny that makes us brothers and companions and none goes his way alone. As he, for whom we too are mourners, was true to the ties of Brotherhood, so shall we be true in the practice of the principles of Freemasonry.

Almighty God, our loving, Heavenly Father we humbly lift our hearts to Thee.

Remember in loving mercy those that are bereaved. Be Thou at this hour the comforting Father of all who mourn. Administer unto them the consolation they need. Cause us to look above this scene of mortality to the life which lies in thy immortality.

Lead us, by Thy grace and spirit, to seek those things which make for our everlasting peace, and fix our thoughts more devotedly on Thee, the only sure refuge in time of need; and at last when our earthly pilgrimage shall have ended, "when the silver cord shall be loosed, and the golden bowl be broken," wilt Thou O Father, be indeed Immanuel-God with us.

May the lamp of Thy love dispel the gloom of the dark valley, and may we be enabled by our faith in Thy Son to gain admission into the blessed temple above. Help us look "beyond the sunset" to the eternal sunrise. We pray in His Holy name. Amen
