Why do people join? |
People become
Freemasons for a many reasons, some as the result of family tradition,
others through the introduction of a friend and some just out of curiosity.
Those who become active in Freemasonry do so because they enjoy it. They enjoy the challenges and fellowship that Freemasonry offers. Each Freemason is required to learn and show humility through initiation. Then, by progression through a series of degrees he gains insight into increasingly complex moral and philosophical concepts, and accepts a variety of challenges and responsibilities which are both stimulating and rewarding. The structure and working of the lodge and the sequence of ceremonial events, which are usually followed by social gatherings, offer members a framework for companionship, teamwork, character development and enjoyment of shared experiences. |
