A Metropolitan, Provincial, or District Grand Lodge comprises the current Grand Master, other present Grand Officers, and the Masters and Wardens of all Lodges under its jurisdiction. Additionally, it includes Past Provincial or District Grand Officers and Past Masters of any Lodge, provided they are both members of the Grand Lodge and subscribing members of a Lodge within the same Metropolitan, Provincial, or District Grand Lodge. This structure ensures that both current and past leadership are represented, fostering continuity and engagement within the Masonic community. Membership eligibility is contingent upon active participation and adherence to the requirements of being a subscribing member of a Lodge. This framework promotes collaboration and communication among various levels of Masonic leadership, enhancing the governance and operational effectiveness of the Grand Lodge.
