COVID-19 Update
Freemasonry in East Aurora is back! Blazing Star Lodge opened its first Lodge meeting since the end of February. What should have been a public installation of Officers was a closed meeting due to continued COVID-19 regulations. All Brothers wore masks, in combination with distancing, and sanitizer was liberally used through out. For the foreseeable future things will be different but we can continue our good works and education.
The Erie District is continuing Zoom meetings for Masonic education and District-wide information. NY Grand Lodge is also continuing educational and informational Zoom meetings. Freemasonry never stoped, our Brotherhood never stoped, our Fraternity never stoped, and our charity never stoped. We learned how to adapt to a new way of communicating and spreading the teachings of Freemasonry. If you are interested in Freemasonry in East Aurora, NY please feel free to contact us for a meeting to learn more.

Blazing Star Lodge #694 F&AM – East Aurora
Proud yet unassuming and slightly hidden behind some old-growth trees, the Blazing Star Masonic Lodge stands as a permanent fixture in East Aurora, New York. It overlooks the town with a protective eye ensuring all who pass are good and upright citizens. We like to think that the presence of the Lodge in our town sets a stage of history, pride, and Brotherly love among the members of the Lodge and the citizens of the town.
As part of the East Aurora, New York community since 1869 (Current Charter – Blazing Star began as #294 in 1818 but the Morgan Affair forced it to close, more on that another time.), the Blazing Star Masonic Lodge actively seeks ways to contribute to the success of our neighbors. We do this by supporting little league baseball, FISH of East Aurora, The Rural Outreach Center, and Scholarships to graduating seniors at Iroquois High School and East Aurora High School. Most recently the formation of Brother Of The Bread lead by Brother Andrew Egressy. We are interested in our community and the people who call East Aurora, New York home.
Our members meet in the Lodge every second and fourth Tuesday of each month September through June. Dinners begin at 6:30 pm with communications starting promptly at 7:30 pm. If you are interested please do not hesitate to knock on our door, virtually or literally, before 7:30 pm, and join us for dinner. We encourage social discussions before and after official communications are complete.
Since 1906 our Lodge stands as a building of humble men striving to better themselves and in-turn make the world a better place. This is what we do. We would love to talk to you more about Freemasonry please contact us anytime.
