Becoming a Member
Membership in the Lodge is open to
men 18 years of age or older. You must pass
strict trials, and prove
yourself worthy, but the rewards of growth
in Masonry last a lifetime.
Some
men wait until their 60's and retirement to start Masonry. Others begin the day
they turn 18. Still others start in the youth organization DeMolay, then join
when they come of age.
Some Masons have a long tradition
of Fathers, Uncles and other relatives in Masonry. Others have just themselves.
Whether or not you come from Masonic tradition has no bearing on your chances
for becoming a Mason. The Fraternity thrives on all of its
heritages.
Father and Son Masons
No matter when you start the
process of becoming a Mason, you will find a warm welcome into Masonry. And
should you become a Master Mason, you will understand the process has begun in
taking a good man and making him better!
If you know a Mason, ask him for
help getting started. If you don't know one, contact your nearest lodge for
more information and an application.(Here is a hint: Look in the phone book!)
Be direct! It is the only
way. |
Officers travel
once around the Lodge before taking their stations.
Every year, the installation banquet and ceremony is open to
the public; especially friends, family, and other Masons.
|
At this point
in the ceremony, Brother Gilcrease is invested with the jewel of his office -
that of Worshipful Master.
For the next year, he will
shoulder the responsibility of seeing that the Lodge is operated according to
its bylaws and the rules of Masonry, and that all Masons in Capitol Lodge
receive the benefits they are due.
Becoming a Mason starts when you ask for
a petition.

 The role the military veteran plays in the life of
the lodge is an important one. While military service is by no means a
requirement for membership in a Masonic Lodge, many of our members have served
with distinction. |
