Officers of the Lodge
In most Lodges there are eleven non-progressive officers and seven progressive officers.
The Progressive Officers
Usually, each year a Brother would progress through these offices on a path from Steward, via the Deacons and Wardens, to the highest honour within a Lodge – the Worshipful Master. However, each office is subject to the choice of the Master.
