Fatherhood of God, Brotherhood of Man

Welcome to the web site of Phoenix Lodge No. 8 of the 17th Masonic District, under the auspices of The Grand Lodge of Ancient Free & Accepted Masons in North Carolina—the oldest and largest Masonic lodge in Fayetteville, North Carolina. First chartered in 1760 A.D. by the Grand Lodge of Scotland, and later was the Lodge that called for the formation of the Grand Lodge AF&AM of North Carolina.

The mission of Freemasonry in North Carolina is to raise the moral, social, intellectual, a spiritual conscience of society by teaching the ancient and enduring philosophical tenets of Brotherly Love, Relief, and Truth, which are expressed outwardly through service to God, family, country, and self under the Fatherhood of God within the Brotherhood of Man.

 

Phoenix Lodge No. 8 AF&AM meets at the Masonic Temple located in historic downtown Fayetteville, North Carolina. Fayetteville is adjacent to Fort Bragg one of the largest military installations in the world; home of the Army's XVIII Airborne Corps, the 82nd Airborne Division, and the elite Special Forces.
