Our Annual Church Service & Parade
Benvarden Lodge normally holds its Annual Divine Service & Church Parade on the third Sunday in May.
This service takes place in Benvarden's local church - Ballywatt Presbyterian Church.
We are deeply thankful to God for the faithful evangelical ministry of this local assembly of believers.
Our Church Parade commences at 3.15pm from the junction of Ballywatt Road & Ballybogey Road.
All members of the Orange Order, Apprentice Boys, Women's Institution, Junior Lodges, Marching Bands,
Loyal True Blue Association, Somme Societies, the Ulster Special Constabulary Association,
UDR Association & Royal British Legion are invited to join us on this occasion.
Friends, supporters and other members of the public are weclome to attend our Annual Church Service.
The Bible Reading is delivered by our Lodge Chaplain.
Members of Benvarden Flute Band lift the Offering.
Rev Ross Collins preaches the sermon.
Benvarden Lodge is immensely honoured to enjoy a warm, excellent, long-term relationship with Ballywatt Presbyterian Church.
Prior to 1906, our lodge used to sit in Ballywatt, in the house of our Founding Worshipful Master,
Wor Bro James Stewart, just down the road from Ballywatt Presbyterian Church.
