world through a unique and worthy process of building better men to live
in it. The Freemason Motto is: "Better men make a better world."
What principles will I learn?

love for all, charitable relief for those who may be in need, morality
and good citizenship in your community.
What type of fraternal society
is Freemasonry?
Freemasonry acts as a charitable,
fraternal, educational, social and character-building society.
Fraternity:
Masonry's active ideal is the
brotherhood of man under the Fatherhood of God.
Education:
Freemasonry supports public
education and teaches its own members morality and brotherhood by means
of ceremonies and symbols.
Social:
The fraternity furnishes opportunity
and inducement for men to gather for group enjoyment and personal development.
Character Building:
All Masonic activities stress
the values of personal integrity and personal responsibility. Each
member is encouraged to make efforts to improve the community in the interest
of human welfare, inspire the members with feelings of charity and good
will for all mankind as well as move them to translate these learned principles
and convictions into individual action.
