Episode 139: Know Thyself (ft. Ben Engel & Ben Youngdahl)

from Minnesota Masonic Histories and Mysteries · host John Schwietz

This week, we welcome two newer members to the Masonic Lounge to hear what their Lodge experience has been like so far.Ben Youngdahl of Accacia No. 51 and Ben Engel of St. John’s No. 1 share fresh perspectives on finding a sense of belonging, creating balance in our lives, and the value of spending quality time together as friends and Brothers.Their experiences offer a candid look at what draws newer members to Freemasonry—and what keeps them coming back.“I cannot imagine my life without those guys. Freemasonry has reminded me that we are dependent on each other...we need each other...we need community. We need to feel as though we can depend on someone and that someone can depend on us.”
