Welcome to the Craft of Freemasonry.  

We greet you as you journey through our portal today! As you have virtually passed through our gateway, we invite you to learn "how our fraternity is a system of morality veiled in allegory."

     
We are a Blue Lodge located in the heart of Bukidnon.

"Blue Lodges are your portal into the largest fraternity in the world. They confirm the three degrees of masonry on worthy and well qualified men."* The Zosimo Montemayor Lodge No. 212, F. & A. M. is a regular lodge constituted under the authority of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of the Philippines.

Three degrees are conferred by this Lodge namely: The Entered Apprentice, Fellowcraft, and the sublime degree of a Master Mason.

Our Lodge sponsors two appendant organizations namely: the Mt. Musuan Chapter, Order of DeMolay, an organization for boys and the Golden Showers Assembly # 13, International Order of Rainbow for Girls.

Other Appendant and Concordant organizations could be found around province. Further information concerning these organizations can be found in the Grand Lodge FAQs section.

     
Is Freemasonry a religion?

No. Neither is Freemasonry a religion, nor does it require a religious affiliation. However, Masons worship in congregations of their choice. Some are ordained priests, ministers, or rabbis; many serve in lay capacities; and others have no affiliation. With origins in post-Reformation England, Freemasonry's allegories and rituals are rooted in Judo-Christian tradition. They exemplify mankind's universal experience and inculcate an admired moral and ethical value system. With respect to religion, Freemasonry simply teaches the "Fatherhood of God," and the "Brotherhood of Man."

     
Is Freemasonry a secret society?

No. By definition, secret societies are organizations who keep everything about them a secret, even its existence and membership. However, Freemasonry is a society with secrets. These "secrets" are in forms of codes, signs and handshakes which are used to identify fellow Masons.
