An important characteristic of the
Masonic fraternity is that it never solicits members. Our code
of conduct prevents it. Thus, no faithful Mason will ever
invite you to join the Fraternity. Instead, one must ask to be admitted
by contacting a Lodge and requesting a petition for
membership.
A man who seeks admission must meet the
following criteria:
1) He must
be a man at least 18 years
old;
2) He must
believe in the existence of a Supreme
Being;
3) He must
be mentally competent and of good moral character;
4) He must
enter Freemasonry of his own free will and accord.
Upon submission of a petition,
the candidate must provide three character references, and
will be investigated by a committee of inquiry. The Lodge must
approve his candidacy by a unanimous ballot. The candidate is
then eligible to receive the three Degrees of Symbolic
Freemasonry.
If you are interested in applying for
membership, you may download and print out a copy of our
