Aprons Off: The Real Freemason
An insight into the life of a Freemason outside the masonic centre.
WANDSMAN OF ST PAULS CATHEDRAL
Name: Kevin Ogilvie
Age: 63
Location: Uxbridge
Joined: 2006
Lodge: Industria, Addington
Kevin is a Wandsman at St Paul's Cathedral. Kevin and the team welcome many tens of thousands of people to the cathedral from all over the world each year.
Kevin enjoys explaining certain aspects of the building, why only part of the ceiling is decorated, explaining the American chapel to our visitors from across the pond and at Christmas directing young Harry Potter fans to the concentric staircase which was used in some of the films. (it is normally closed to visitors). They also host large scale events such as the Queen's Platinum Jubilee and has been host to many famous ambassadors such as The Archbishop of Canterbury.
Kevin's favourite part of Freemasonry is helping and being there for others, in freemasonry we are constantly being encouraged to "be more conscious of the needs to others". It encourages you to be selfless, give to charitable causes (only what you can) and support others in their time of need.
Supporting each other is a large part of what Kevin enjoys in freemasonry. In Freemasonry, you are immediately made to feel welcome, there is a real sense of camaraderie and support that you won't find anywhere else.
Everyone is eager to support and help you on your journey. So why not join today.
