36th (Ulster) Division Memorial L.O.L. 977

INFORMATION FROM THE

GRAND ORANGE LODGE OF IRELAND

We are a Protestant fraternity with members throughout the world. Autonomous Grand Lodges are found in Scotland, England, the United States of America, West Africa, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

Our name comes from William III, Prince of Orange, and is kept because his victory over despotic power laid the foundation for the evolution of Constitutional Democracy in the British Isles.

When the inappropriately named Defenders attacked Protestant weavers and farmers in Armagh in 1795 the Orange Order which opposes tyranny and despotism in Church and State was re-organised. It is relevant today in a world beset by conflicting systems.

In Northern Ireland it faces descendants of the misnamed defenders, Sinn Fein/I.R.A.

May these pages help you to understand our position better. May we all discover the Truth which sets us free.

It is good to know that the book "SANDY ROW BORN AND BRED" by Gordon Freeman is being purchased throughout the English speaking world as well as local people who have not only purchased one for themselves but for relatives and friends across the seas. There are many outlets where the book can be purchased, but we suggest that you purchase it from Amazon. The current paperback price is £10.99 and £3.99 for the Kindle Edition.

What a fantastic parade, left Belfast at 11am still arriving at Stormont at 5pm.

Many feet are sore, but today we walked in the footsteps of Giants.

Fantastic day, proud to have been part of it all

The 36th (Ulster) Division Memorial L.O.L. 977 held their 92nd Anniversary Dinner in the Rehoboth Mission Church, Mount Vernon, North Belfast on Friday 1st April 2011. The lodge had the privilege of having as their guest speaker, W. Bro. Councillor Frazer Agnew P.M. As this year marks the 400th anniversary of the King James Version of the Bible, popularly known as the Authorised Version, Bro. Agnew took the opportunity to speak on the subject. He used the text "The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times." (Psalm 12:6) to illustrate the various stages in the development of the Authorised Version. The Worshipful Master, William Dickson thanked W. Bro. Agnew for his most enjoyable and enlighting talk and went on to thank all the members and friends of the lodge for their loyal support over many years in keeping 977 active as a 'living memorial' within No 3 District.
