Scottish Rite Omaha

Since 1851 Scottish Rite has been a force in the Nebraska Masonic World.  Although records show that when Albert Pike, 33°, Grand Commander, visited Omaha he stated he wasn’t sure the Valley would ever become very strong.  Leadership since that time has proven him wrong. 

There was a strong Masonic movement in Omaha in the early 1900’s when the Masonic Building at 19^th and Douglas, the Scottish Rite Masonic Center (SRMC) were built, Job’s Daughters, Omaha Masonic Home for Boys (now Omaha Home for Boys) and Rainbow International were established here in Omaha.  Even the second Chapter of DeMolay (now oldest) was charted on the second floor of the SRMC in that time frame.
