Who can become a Freemason?
Welcome to the world of Freemasonry, a brotherhood that has stood the test of time for over three centuries. Our fraternity is built on the timeless principles of Brotherly Love, Relief, and Truth, uniting men of goodwill from all walks of life.
At the heart of our Craft lies a commitment to moral and spiritual growth, fostering a community where men can come together to make a positive difference in their lives and the world around them.
Becoming a Freemason is a straightforward journey, guided by three essential qualifications:
Spiritual: A belief in a Supreme Being, welcoming men of all faiths and backgrounds.
Moral: A commitment to being a person of good repute, loyal to your country, and obedient to the laws of the land.
Physical: Open to men aged 21 and above, ensuring the freedom to form your own opinions and exercise personal judgment.
While membership is exclusive to men, we wholeheartedly encourage the involvement of wives, partners, and families in the vibrant social aspects of Freemasonry.
If you're ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery, personal growth, and brotherhood, we invite you to take the first step and explore the rich world of Freemasonry. Join us as we continue to build upon our legacy of Brotherly Love, Relief, and Truth, creating a brighter future for ourselves and generations to come.
