Our story
A little history. A lot of heart.
Zelica Grotto is where fraternal tradition loosens its tie, pulls up a chair, and gets to work for the people around it.
Since 1889
Good fellowship.
The Grotto, officially known as the Mystic Order of Veiled Prophets of the Enchanted Realm, is an appendant body of Freemasonry founded as a more relaxed social and charitable setting for Master Masons.
That spirit still shapes Zelica Grotto today. We make room for conversation, camaraderie, and the kind of practical generosity that shows up in a local community.
Our guiding phrase says it best: “Good Fellowship, and in contact with our Fellow Man.”
01 / Fellowship
Come as you are.
The Grotto gives Master Masons a lighter, more informal place to build friendships beyond the solemnity of lodge.
02 / Philanthropy
Keep the good moving.
Raffles, bingo, and fundraisers turn ordinary gatherings into steady support for local causes and the Humanitarian Foundation.
03 / Membership
Make room at the table.
Interested Master Masons in good standing are invited to learn more and help carry the mission forward.
