Welcome to the official website of Joppa Lodge No. 35, Free and Accepted Ancient Masons, proudly serving Washington, District of Columbia since December 15, 1920.
Joppa Lodge No. 35 is not simply an institution. It is a living body of men bound together by shared values, mutual respect, and a commitment to personal growth and service to humanity. For more than a century, this Lodge has labored quietly yet faithfully, shaping leaders, strengthening families, and contributing to the moral foundation of our community.
Within our walls, men from diverse backgrounds meet on the level, work together in harmony, and part upon the square. Freemasonry teaches us to govern ourselves wisely, to serve others generously, and to walk uprightly before God and man.
