Welcome to Chemainus Lodge No. 114
Having adopted the name of Chemainus Lodge on March 6, 1926, the Masonic Brethren of Chemainus sent a letter, along with a petition to the Grand Lodge of British Columbia (now the Grand Lodge of British Columbia and Yukon) requesting support for the Chemainus effort to form a Lodge. Chemainus Lodge No. 114 Ancient Free & Accepted Masons received it's Charter July 16, 1927.
Chemainus Lodge is in District 27 on Vancouver Island, and meets in St. John's Masonic Temple, in Ladysmith. The Lodge proudly performs the Emulation Ritual, as performed by the United Grand Lodge of England since 1815.

MASTER'S GREETINGS
​
November 11, 2024, marks the 106th anniversary of the end of hostilities in the First World War. There are no longer veterans of that conflict still with us. Surviving heroes of WWII are becoming less with each passing year, as with the soldiers who fought bravely in Korea. Many of us have relatives and ancestors who fought for Canada during those, and other conflicts. The Royal Canadian Legion, through the annual Poppy Campaign, strives to ensure the memory of our fallen heroes survives into eternity.
​
Wear a poppy, this year, and give thanks for the efforts of our fallen soldiers.
​
Sincerely and Fraternally
Very Worshipful Brother Terry van Seters
Worshipful Master
