Get Ready, Get Ready, Get Ready

The Road to the 150 Anniversary is coming soon. Plans are being made for the 150th Anniversary of the establishment of the Most Worshipful Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Texas. The celebration will be held in Brenham, Texas, (our founding city), the weekend of August 22-24, 2025. Our organization was founded August 19-20, 1875, at St John AME Church, with Norris Wright Cuney as the 1st Grand Master. We will have something for all, grown folks and children. Over the next few months, you will be receiving reminders and information concerning this historic event. Now is the time to start preparing for this time of reflection. Let us celebrate our history.
