WHAT IS FREEMASONRY?

In discussing Freemasonry, we can talk about Masonic Tradition, Masonic History, Masonic Philosophy, and Masonry Today.

Masonry is also the custodian of a tradition of initiation which is the duty of every Freemason to preserve and perpetuate. However, underlying all of these is the basic purpose of Freemasonry - Make Good Men Better.

We place emphasis on the individual man by strengthening his character, improving his moral and spiritual outlook, and broadening his mental horizons. We impress upon the minds of our members the principles of personal responsibility and morality, encouraging each member to practice in his daily life the lessons taught through symbols of the Craft.

One of the universal doctrines of Freemasonry is the belief in the Brotherhood of Man and the Fatherhood of God. The importance of this belief is established by each Mason as he practices the three principal tenets of Masonry: Brotherly Love, Relief and Truth.

For more information, we recommend you visit the Grand Lodge website or discuss the history of Freemasonry with a brother mason.
