The outport fishing community of Twillingate, Newfoundland & Labrador, was at one time known as Newfoundland's "Capital of the North." While the fishery remains important to Twillingate, today it is also a bustling provincial tourist destination. Twillingate has many institutions of which its residents can be proud, not least among these is its local chapter of the Freemasons. In fact, the town has been home to a Masonic Lodge for well over a century. Its origins can be traced as far back as 1889.In that year a group of influential Twillingate residents met at the town's Court House, to found a Chapter of the Masonic Order. Their efforts bore fruit, and for many years Twillingate Freemasons have made a positive contribution to their community. With the goal of "making good men better," Twillingate Lodge No. 7 (formerly No. 2364) has witnessed many milestones over the course of its existence, not least of which was the building of its beautiful Temple in 1906-7, at a time when membership amounted to only a few dozen men.In 2019 the Lodge marked its 130th Anniversary. As was the case in 1889, Twillingate Lodge No. 7 remains a vibrant and active part of the local community. Thirteen decades on, Twillingate Masons still strive to lead by example. This small volume is intended as a tribute to all those Brothers, past and present, who have given of their time and effort to ensure that our Craft remains a positive model for our fellow citizens.
