On Thursday 27th March 2026, Loyal Manor Lodge No. 6445 was delighted to initiate Mr James Colin Almond as an Entered Apprentice into Freemasonry.
James, a maritime consultant by profession, becomes the latest new member to join our lodge. His initiation ceremony was conducted with the dignity, warmth, and brotherly fellowship that have become hallmarks of Loyal Manor Lodge’s events. The evening provided a memorable start to what the members hope will be a long and fulfilling journey within Freemasonry.
Our lodge was particularly pleased to welcome James into Freemasonry and look forward to guiding and supporting him as he begins to explore the foundational principles, moral teachings, and traditions of Fareemasonry.
Everyone at Loyal Manor Lodge extends a sincere and warm welcome to Brother Almond. We are confident that he will prove a valuable addition to the lodge, and we look forward to seeing him actively involved in our future activities.
The lodge wishes Brother Almond every success and enjoyment as he continues his journey within the wider Freemasonry community in Dorset.
