What is Freemasonry
Freemasonry (or Masonry) is the oldest fraternal organization in the world. Though its origins can be traced to the stonemasons and cathedral builders of Medieval times, Freemasonry remains a vital force in the daily lives of millions of men across the globe.
Through a series of degrees and ceremonies, the values of Freemasonry are passed from generation to generation, Mason to Mason, in a timeless and tireless effort to make good men better. These degrees provide a framework that affects every aspect of modern life and are based on the values of brotherly love, relief, and truth.
Every year in virtually every city and town across America, thousands of men join the ranks of Freemasonry. Men of honor and integrity. Of charity and obligation. Each with a vow to be the best they can be. To be more than just a man. To be a Mason.

Would you Like to Play a Game? (Syllogisms)
“You should come over to my house. I have a Sega Genesis” I hear John say in Sunday School (Names changed for privacy) My eyes go wide, my jaw drops, I get a little lightheaded “Did you say, ‘Sega Genesis?’” 🕹️ I ask with the wide eye enthusiasm of a 5 year old. John was […]
