Mount Everest Lodge had grown to a position where it was felt necessary to have a new lodge to accommodate the overflow and encourage the progress of newer Masons. Thus Lotus Lodge was founded.

 

The Lodge banner depicts Mount Everest in the background indicating its parentage, and a large deep-pink lotus in the foreground. The motto of the lodge is “Truth, Light, Immortality.”

 

The lodge employs the Sussex Ritual, and meets on the third Wednesday of every month except February, May, August and November.
