KYPROS  No. 1835
Lodge of Mark Master Masons
         Consecrated 8th October, 2003

                                                                     

Ever since 1908 when the St.Paul's Lodge of Mark Master Masons No.455 ceased to exist Cyprus remained 
without a Mark Master Masons Lodge until the 8th of October, 2003 when the KYPROS Lodge was
Consecrated

The St. Paul's Lodge was formed by the same pioneers who introduced Masonry to Cyprus, was consecrated at
Polemidia, Limassol, on the 29th of November, 1892.

In 1992, on Thursday the 16th of January, one of the Cypriot Masons, E. J. Georgiou, was advanced to the
degree of Mark Master Mason in the Monument Lodge No.1295, Wellington, Somerset, and promised that he
would try to bring Mark Master Masonry back to Cyprus. After some turbulent time for Masonry in Cyprus
the then newly appointed District Grand Master R. W. Bro S. F. N. Waley, PProvGM(Kent), having been the
protagonist, in clearing the clouds from the Cyprus Masonic sky, passed the Grand Lodge green light to Bro
Georgiou, and some other Mark brethren very much in favour of having a Mark Lodge on the island. Following
a visit to the Grand Lodge of Mark Master Masons towards the end of 2001 a new Lodge was to be formed.
Petitioners were found and with the valuable assistance of the Grand Lodge, the Big Day of Consecration,
  the 8th of October, 2003 was a reality.

  The Consecration team was headed by the Pro-Grand Master, M.W.Bro John Hale , Assisted  by

  R..W. Bro Bryan Adshead GJW as Grand Senior Warden , W. Bro Peter Wise PGJD,Ass ProvGM(Kent)
