How To Join
A man who wants to join a lodge must be sponsored or recommended by two members of that lodge who will sign the application form.
Then, some other members of that lodge may wish to meet the applicant and his wife and family to find out more about him (to answer any questions he or his family may have about Freemasonry) and to advise him about the initiation fee and the annual dues, what will be expected of him if his application is accepted and what will occur at his initiation into Freemasonry.
What Freemasonry expects of its members:
Freemasonry welcomes applications from men who seek harmony with their fellow man and who wish to participate in making this world a better place in which to live by promoting Masonic ideals of reverence, morality, kindness, honesty, dependability and compassion.
Its members are expected to:
- Promote the fraternity’s principles and objectives.
- Be loyal to their families, their employers, their communities and to the fraternity.
- Honour their country, uphold its laws and respect those in authority.
- Participate in lodge activities including particularly its charitable endeavours.
