Who We Are
Building character. Empowering youth. Transforming community.
Alsen Pride Lodge No. 253 is a Prince Hall Masonic organization chartered in 1946. We build character through mentorship, empower youth through direct service, and transform our community through three core principles: Brotherly Love, Relief, and Truth.
About Our Lodge
Reorganized 1998
Reorganized by nine transferring brothers.
After the charter was dormant from 1949–1998, Grand Master Ralph Slaughter reorganized the lodge in 1998 with nine transferring brothers from Twilight Lodge No. 166 — renewing a commitment to growth and visible service that continues today.
