Freemasonry is the largest and oldest fraternity
in the world, as well as, the largest philanthropic
organization in existence today. It is a system
designed to instill morality & ethics, and to guide
& encourage good men to be of service to them-
selves, their families and their communities.

"A true Freemason is the man who is free from superstition and free from infidelity; who feels and adores the higher destiny of man; to whom faith, hope and charity are not mere words without any meaning.

The ideal of a Freemason is the personification of brotherly love, relief and truth. The touchstones of our fraternity are the four cardinal virtues; Temperance, Fortitude, Prudence and Justice... the theological virtues of Faith, Hope and Charity... and what we refer to as the three great social treasures: Fraternity, Liberty and Equality.

We believe in charity, so much so that as a masonic family we contribute over three and a half million dollars a day to our various charitable endeavors. The Shrine-masons alone contribute 416 million dollars a year to their Children's Hospitals."
