The Masonic Law of Research is charted under the Grand Lodge of Connecticut A.F.&A.M. but differs from most Lodges in the state. MLR has only six meetings per year, and does not initiate candidates. Our meetings typically have a short, formal business portion followed by a presentation by a member or guest, or a discussion of Masonic topics.
