Greetings,

Callahan and Callahan Lodge No. 32 are located in the Florida Crown in the Northeast corner of the state.  We are about 20 miles north of downtown Jacksonville. 

Our lodge has been serving the community of Callahan for over 138 years and our members have been active participants in the rich history of Callahan, Nassau County and the State of Florida.  Our lodge and many of our present day Masonic members can trace our lineage back to 1856; that was the year Callahan was founded as a stop on the new Yulee Railroad.  The railroad was built to connect the East Coast of Florida to the Gulf Coast of Florida from Fernandina to Cedar Key.   Today, Callahan Lodge No. 32 has about 140 members.  Most are men who go about their jobs and professions with no hint they are Freemasons except for the way they lead their lives.  Several elected officials have belonged to Callahan Lodge No. 32 over the years, including:  state senators, state representatives, judges, county property appraiser, county commissioners, mayors, city councilmen, county school board members, and other elected offices.  Our lodge is one of the oldest organizations in the county and one of the oldest lodges in our state.  Early members of our lodge helped to form other lodges and many of them became officers in new lodges.  Our lodge grew with our community and our goal is to continue to grow while helping to build a better America.
