Being Made a Mason

George Washington 1776 Lodge #337, F. & A.M., Whitefish Bay, Wisconsin

Being Made a Mason

We are always looking for good men who seek to become even better men by being made a Mason. Like the craft of being a stone mason, a man moves up by degrees, starting from an Entered Aprentice, up to a journeyman which we call Fellowcraft, finally to becoming a Master Mason. Among Freemasons, we tend to say that if you want to become a Mason, you must ask one to be one.

How Can You Join?

A person seeking to be made a Mason, can request a petition. The members will send a small investigating committee to meet with you after you complete a petition. The lodge seeks new members.

Who Can Join?

Men who are of at least 18 years old. Masonry is not a religion, but we do start meetings with a prayer. It is necessary that a member have a belief in Deity. Members come from all religions: Christian, Jewish, Islam, and others.

Benefits of Joining

Members are called brothers, because we seek to act in harmony and brotherhood in all we do. We form life-long friendships as we learn to improve ourselves in morality, truth, and friendship.
