Elysian Lodge No. 418 marked a historic moment when it received the universal Masonic flag
A night of Light, education, and fraternity at Elysian Lodge No. 418,. Los Angeles, California — 2026 (A.L. 6026).
“The union of Masons is the strength of virtue.”
Elysian Lodge No. 418, F.&A.M. of California,
lived an extraordinary evening of Light and fraternity.
During our Stated Dinner on Thursday, May 7th, the Worshipful Master, Wor. Marco Cerretelli, offered an enlightening lecture on the Symbolism of the Beehive, open to Masons and guests. His reflections on labor, unity, and the harmony of the hive beautifully prepared the spirit of the night.
Immediately afterward, during the Stated Meeting, Elysian Lodge No. 418 experienced a historic moment with the Presentation of the Universal Masonic Flag.
The California Hispanic and Latin American Research Lodge bestowed upon Elysian Lodge No. 418 the Certificate of Masonic Fraternity, together with the Flag whose green field represents immortality and hope, and whose central emblem — the Beehive and the Seven Golden Bees — reminds us of the virtues that guide our labor:
- Industriousness
- Constancy
- Unity and Obedience
A special applause goes to our Brother, Q.H. Jorge Romero, creator of these emblematic designs and a steadfast supporter of Hispanic Freemasonry. His dedication and artistic vision continue to elevate and unify our community.
