What are the absolute requirements?
|
Being a man at least 21 years old
Having a belief in a Supreme Being.(No particular religion or faith is required or
excluded. All are welcome.)
You must be able afford the initiation fees and the annual dues without causing
hardship to yourself or your family.
You should be entering Masonry of your own free will and accord.
|
Are there any other considerations?
|
You should be someone eager to join a Fraternity consisting of men from different;
backgounds, faiths, races, countries. Masonry is universal in its ideals.
If you are a family man, Masonry considers that your family obligations
come FIRST, so you must be sure that:
You have the time to participate (usually two or three evenings per month, -
often more if you get involved in lodge activities.)
By coming to Masonry of your own free will and accord,
you should be willing to learn to improve yourself and to enjoy the company
of other good people, not because of selfish motives.
