Welcome to Stonewall-Jasper Lodge No. 6 website. By clicking on the various buttons you can visit and

your question using the appropriate request form.
Our order which was founded by Justus H. Rathbone in Washington, D.C. on February 19, 1864, is based on
the principles of Friendship, Charity and Benevolence. We are very proud to be the first of two fraternal organizations which
received their charter from the United States Congress, the second being the Boy Scouts of America.
We have three recognized auxiliaries: The Pythian Sisters, The Dramatic Order of the Knights of Khorassan
(DOKK) and the Junior Order Knights of Pythias.
The Pythian order has chosen Special Olympics to be our national charity, thats not to say that other
charities are not considered. Stonewall-Jasper lodge also supports Camp Happy Days and Special Times, Masonic Service
Association, Make A Wish Foundation, My Sister House and Coastal Autism. Many hours of volunteer work and effort is given
by our members to help those in need, thats all part of being a Pythian. Our members want to and enjoy giving back to our
community, to help make it a better place to live.
The Knights of Pythias also works to promote and support the Boy Scouts by allowing the use of their meeting
halls and participating with various programs, incentives and monetary support. We also sponsor a Dixie Youth Baseball team.
We want to promote a healthy environment for our children.
If you believe in a Supreme Being and want to work in harmony with your fellow man, want to give back
to your community, then I urge you to consider joining our organization. Information is available on this website.
