My Masonic journey started off with one of my favourite subjects – Rugby. I never knew about Freemasonry and had no clue of what this organization stood for. I joined Freemasonry in June 1996 after I was asked by a colleague if I am not interested in joining “die Losie”. I told my friend that […]

1 Month, 1 Mason – WBro. Juan de Villiers
