WHAT FREEMASONRY IS
Freemasonry is the world's oldest and largest Fraternity. Its history and tradition
date to antiquity. Its singular purpose is to make good men better. Its bonds of
friendship, compassion and brotherly love have survived even the most devised political,
military and religious conflicts through the centuries. Freemasonry is neither a forum nor
a place for worship. Instead, it is a friend of all religions which are based on the
belief in one God. WHO FREEMASONS ARE
Many of our nation's early patriots were Freemasons, as well as thirteen signers of the
Constitution and fourteen Presidents of the United States, beginning with George
Washington.
Today, the more than four million Freemasons around the world come from
virtually every occupation and profession. Within the Fraternity, however, they all meet
as equals. They come from diverse political ideologies, but they meet as friends. They
come from virtually every religious belief, but they all believe in one God.
One of the most fascinating aspects of Freemasonry has always been: how so
many men, from so many different walks of life, can meet together in peace, never have any
political or religious debates, always conduct their affairs in harmony and friendship,
and call each other "Brother!"
WHAT FREEMASONS BELIEVE IN
All Freemasons believe in one God and in respect for each other. |
|
WHAT FREEMASONS DO
Freemasons are respectable citizens who are taught to conform to the moral laws of
society and to abide by the laws of the government under which they live. They are men of
charity and good works. They remain unchallenged as "the world's greatest
philanthropy!" The Freemasons of America contribute almost two
million dollars every day to charitable causes which they, alone, have established. These
services to mankind represent an unparalleled example of the humanitarian commitment and
concern of this unique and honorable Fraternity.
QUALIFICATIONS
Freemasonry is proud of its philosophy and practice of "making good men
better." Only individuals believed to be of the finest character are favorably
considered for Membership. Every applicant must advocate his belief in the existence of a
Supreme Being (atheists are not accepted into the Fraternity).
THOSE WHO SEEK MEMBERSHIP
Anyone seeking Membership in Freemasonry must ask a Masonic friend to recommend
him. He must sign a Petition, stating his age, occupation and place of residence. Members
of the Lodge vote on admission after careful consideration of the character and reputation
of the applicant.
THE MASONIC LODGE
The Masonic Lodge meets regularly to conduct its regular business and to vote upon
Petitions for Membership. It is here where the bonds of friendship and fellowship are
strengthened. |
 |
THE MASONIC DEGREES
The candidate attends three Meetings (one per month) to receive the three Masonic
Degrees, concluding with the Third (or Master Mason's) Degree. The Degrees are solemn,
enlightening, and an enjoyable experience with no uncomfortable or embarrassing moments.
It is here where the principles of Freemasonry are taught and where the new Member learns
that his family and his own necessary vocations are to be considered above Freemasonry.
Every Master Mason is welcomed as a "Brother" in any of the thousands of Masonic
Lodges throughout the world.
