The Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of
Ancient Free and Accepted Masons

     of the State of Illinois


Welcome to Illinois Masonic Outreach Services!


Illinois Freemasonry is excited to unveil the Illinois Masonic Outreach Services program.  Established to address the unique needs of our aging members, wives and widows, we are taking the lead on an innovative program that will bridge the gap between community resource and member needs in order to promote physical, social, financial and personal enrichment to enhance the quality of life for our senior members. Under the leadership of the program Director, Mrs. Karla Carwile, Illinois Masons will be able to locate internal and external resources and assistance to meet a variety of needs.  Her expertise in this field will allow us to provide you with superior service regardless of where you choose to reside.

Although Mason Point will no longer exist as a physical location of a Masonic building, the care of our elderly members and their widows remains of the utmost importance to the Grand Lodge Officers and staff. Our position is this, we can supply aide to Illinois Masons by utilizing endowment funds without spending these funds on aging facilities and programs.  Such spending is not cost effective and quickly results in the depletion of the critical resources that have been so generously donated over the years.  By implementing this program, a greater number of members in need will be eligible for services.  In short, aging Illinois Masons everywhere will benefit by this new and proven method of caring for them. 

Feel free to review the website!  Take a look at the Eligibility Requirements, the Services and Programs we offer, The Resources or the Opportunities to make a difference.  I ask for your continued support in what we know is going to be a significant step forward in what Masons are supposed to be doing, “That I will aide and assist all worthy, distressed Brother Master Masons, their widows and orphans”.

In Faith and Friendship,
Daniel C. Yandel 
Most Worshipful Grand Master
