Cheers and welcome to the Denver Consistory website. This website provides current information about our programs and activities. It also presents information helpful in understanding our organizational structure, Scottish Rite traditions, our local Scottish Rite history, and related matters.

Colorado's Scottish Rite organizations trace their beginnings to 1877 when the first Scottish Rite body was created in Denver. Since our first initiation class in 1890, more than 50,000 men have become Scottish Rite Masons in Denver. At present, more than 4,000 men hold membership in Denver Consistory.

Our Consistory activities offer a wide range of volunteer service to the Fraternity and the community. While attendance at our monthly scheduled meetings is not mandatory, we encourage our members to become involved in one or more activities. In addition to the monthly meetings, we conduct a semi-annual ritual initiation for new members through which the philosophical and Masonic teachings of the Rite are exemplified.

We host a monthly entertainment program for all members and their guests. During this time we break bread together and enjoy various types of entertainment including youth group performances, instrumental and choral productions, and presentations by noted community leaders. We also conduct scheduled organ concerts for the public with our famous Kimbal pipe organ which has played in our auditorium since 1926.

In addition to these activities, we conduct charitable and service activities in the community such as assisting with the work of the Scottish Rite Foundation of Colorado and its RiteCare Childhood Language Program, sponsoring and conducting a health fair screening site for KUSA television's 9Health Fair program in Colorado, participating in the Denver public television Channel Six annual auction, and supporting quality public education initiatives such as the teacher forums conducted by the Freedom's Foundation of Valley Forge.

Our Denver Consistory Ladies organization, an outstanding group of dedicated women, are very active with their monthly meetings and service to the RiteCare Childhood Language Program. They support this program by donating stuffed toy animals to the RiteCare kids at The Children’s Hospital and our other clinics in Colorado. More than 5,000 toys have been distributed to the RiteCare clinics.

One of the greatest benefits of membership in the Scottish Rite and in Freemasonry is the friendship among and between principled men of high moral conduct - men of various religious faiths and political persuasions who come together in the spirit of brotherly love and who, with sincere affection, refer to one another as brother.
