"Welcome to the Rizpah Shriners website!" 

     Rizpah Temple is one of the 193 Shrine Temples chartered under Shriners International.  You most likely know us best in common parlance as simply "The Shriners". One of the things that many people may not know is that all Shriners are Freemasons first, and only those who have achieved the Degree of a Master Mason can become a Shriner.  However, not all Masons are Shriners, it's strictly voluntary if a Mason chooses to join.

     Located in the modest town of Madisonville, Rizpah Shriners has served the Western Kentucky Region for over a Century and we continue to commit our support to our Childrens Hospitals and Burns Centers.  Our theme as we enter 2012 is "Back to Basics".
