St. John's Lodge No 1 AF & AM

01/28/2026

Imagine stepping into a world where connections aren't made through likes and shares, but through timeless bonds of brotherhood and shared values. That's St. John's Lodge #1 Newport in Portsmouth, Rhode Island—a men's fraternal organization that's been the original social network since way before apps took over our lives. Founded back in 1749, we're proud to be the 6th oldest active Masonic Lodge in the entire country, where guys from all walks of life come together to build character, support each other, and make a real difference in the community—just like those early networks that connected people face-to-face.
If you're a good man looking to level up your life with meaningful friendships and personal growth, we're currently interviewing potential candidates (18+) to join our ranks. It's not about secret handshakes (okay, maybe a little), but about becoming part of something bigger than yourself. Stop by between 5 - 6:30 pm on 1/28 or 1/29 if this sounds like you!
