Become a Freemason

Who are Freemasons?

The Free & Accepted Masons are a fraternal organization, rich in history, of men working towards “making good men better”. We are involved in the betterment of one’s self and the giving to charity. We live our lives “upon the square”.

Masons come from all walks of life. We are teachers, business people, doctors, lawyers, pharmacists, police, firemen, EMT’s, barbers and deli-men. Our common purpose is “making good men better”.

Masonry is everywhere…

You may have seen the signs of Masonry in your community, at the movies, historic buildings, or maybe know some Masons in history.

CommunityThere are over 100 lodges in the State of New Jersey alone. You may recognize one of their buildings in your community.	MoviesThe DaVinci Code, Angel & Demons, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, and National Treasure are but a few examples of the mysteries of Freemasonry in films.
Historic BuildingsGeorge Washington Historic Masonic Memorial, Historic Trenton Masonic Temple, and Philadelphia Masonic Temple are but a few of the local Historical buildings.

How do I become a Mason?

The Masons have a saying, “To be one, ask one”.
