Over the centuries, millions of men of every race and creed throughout the world have sought answers to questions as old as time: What is the meaning of life? The nature of God and man?

The light of Freemasonry has helped guide their search. "A system of morality, veiled in allegory, illustrated by symbols" Freemasonry is not a religion, but religious in character. It is a philosophy of ethical conduct which imparts moral and social virtues and fosters brotherly love. Its tenets embody the understanding by which man can transcend ordinary experience and build "a house not made with hands" in harmony with the Great Architect of the Universe.

Freemasonry can never conflict with a man's relationship to God or his fellow man. Men 18 years and older of any religion or any political party are free to join Masonic Lodges. Sectarian religious or partisan political discussion in a Lodge is strictly prohibited. Every Mason stands equal among his brothers, regardless of walk of life, and no one is turned away for financial need.

Freemasonry has been characterized as a fraternity devoted to high ideals and benevolence. Community service and charitable work are, in fact, principal Masonic activities. The Masonic Fraternity and its various concordant bodies exceed two million dollars per day, nationwide.

With this spirit of working together to serve mankind, brotherhood works well indeed.
