Becoming A Member

Becoming a Freemason is not hard as most people think. Yes, our order is sophisticated and our means of recognizing each other are secretive, but we love to see brothers dwell together in unity. There are many great benefits to being a Mason. Obtaining the right knowledge to build an upright moral character, spiritual growth and development to manifest good things into your life, participating in charitable events to help widows and orphans, and more are just a few of the enormous benefits of Freemasonry. We encourage men who would like to better themselves and others to participate.

There is an old saying, "2 Be 1 Ask 1". Nothing is wrong with seeing a Masonic Brother or Eastern Star Sister somewhere and asking them how to become a Member. We encourage those who have family members that are Masons and Eastern Stars to join us. Let's keep the light shining!

Our Dedication To The Craft

As Freemasons, we are extremely committed to bettering ourselves, our communities, and the world at large. Every individual Mason is on a journey of self-discovery, divinely inspired to believing in something greater than himself. This is a journey in which each Mason will be supported by other good men of the craft. This journey begins at the door, where each Man of God is led down the straight and narrow to the Light that shines in the darkness and the darkness comprehends it not! Our journey as Freemasons are not alone. No good man travels alone. Come join us on this journey.

Walking The Star

Have you ever seen one of your family members or friends an Eastern Star and thought about joining? I'm quite sure you have because so many of us have felt the same way and that is why we are here today, on this point.

Becoming an Eastern Star is a beautiful thing! Founded by Dr Rob Morris as an Adoptive Rite to Freemasonry, the Eastern Star degrees are considered to be connected with Freemasonry by intimate and tender ties.

The Royal Grand Chapter Order of the Eastern Star was organized on June 11, 1911 in Tampa, Florida by Most Worshipful Grand Master Charles C. Manigault who led in the establishment of the Most Worshipful Prince Hall Grand Lodge F.& A.M. established in 1909.
