Petitioning the Craft

2 B 1 Ask 1

The First Step is Yours

Freemasonry is the only fraternity that does not solicit its members. A man must seek us of his own free will and accord.

Qualifications for Membership

  • Be a man of at least eighteen (18) years of age
  • Believe in a Supreme Being
  • Be of good moral character and reputation
  • Come of your own free will, recommended by no man
  • Reside in or near the jurisdiction of the Lodge

The Path Forward

  1. Reach Out

    Send a brief introduction to the Secretary explaining your interest. We will respond and invite you to meet some of our members informally.

  2. Visit and Get Acquainted

    Join us for a dinner before a Stated Communication, or attend an open event. There is no obligation — come, ask questions, meet the Brethren.

  3. Submit a Petition

    When you are ready, you will be given a petition for the degrees. Two members of the Lodge will sign as your recommenders.

  4. Investigation & Ballot

    An investigating committee will visit you at home to ensure mutual understanding. The Lodge then ballots on your petition.

  5. Receive the Degrees

    If accepted, you will be initiated as an Entered Apprentice, passed to the degree of Fellowcraft, and raised to the sublime degree of Master Mason.
