Welcome to the Home page of the Provincial Priory of Leicestershire & Rutland. The Masonic and Military Orders of the Temple and of St John of Jerusalem, Palestine, Rhodes and Malta, or the "United Orders" as we more commonly refer to them, are beautiful Christian masonic orders with a rich and colourful history. They have flourished in Leicestershire since 1884 and the Province now consists of seven units, known as Preceptories.
The Orders are thriving and popular with meetings being well attended. As well as experiencing some of the most challenging and meaningful ritual in Masonry, members enjoy a great camaraderie at meetings and large sums are raised for the Orders' charity, the Eye Hospital of St John of Jerusalem.
I hope that in visiting this site, either as a member or interested visitor, that you will enjoy the content and gain a greater understanding of the United Orders and our activities.
If you are a Royal Arch Mason and interested in joining the Order of Knights Templar or require further information, please contact the Provincial Vice-Chancellor.
