Brethren, the ladies of the Trucksville United Methodist Church make bed rolls for the homeless in Wilkes-Barre for the winter months as part of the My Brother’s Keeper: Maker’s of Ugly Quilts program. These bed rolls are tied together with USED neckties to maintain the roll. If you have any USED neckties you no longer want, please drop them off at the lodge and we will make sure they are donated to this program.
Constituted in 1875, George M. Dallas Lodge No. 531. has the largest brethren in District 12. Named in honor of the 11th U.S. Vice President George M. Dallas, the Lodge has amassed over 825 members.
Each month, Lodge 531 features presentations to educate and entertain regarding Freemasonry, with some open to the public. It also welcomes new members and works to help others take further steps in Freemasonry.
531 continues to serve the public through charitable donations and fund-raising events each year. Several organizations such as the Back Mountain Food Pantry and American Legion Post 672 have benefited from the generosity of our Lodge.
