Life as a Mason

What is the typical life of a Mason?

It’s a question we get a lot from men who are deciding if they’d like to join the craft. The real answer is: There is no “typical” life of a Mason. Masons come from all walks of life — from Corporate CEOs to city bus drivers, from commodities brokers to auto mechanics. What unifies Masons is not where we come from or what we do for a living, but rather what we aspire to be.

QUALITIES OF A MASON
 The essential qualities Masons share in their diverse lives are a belief in a Supreme Being and a desire to strive for:

  • fellowship with other Masons
  • high moral standards
  • kindness in the home
  • courtesy in society
  • honesty in business
  • fairness in all dealings

BEING A MASON

Being a Mason is about a father helping his son make better decisions; a business leader striving to bring morality to the workplace; a thoughtful man learning to work through tough issues in his life.


FELLOWSHIP, FRIENDSHIP, AND COMMUNITY SERVICE

Throughout a Mason’s life, fellowship and friendship is a key component, as well as community service. The typical Mason wants to continue to grow as a man and to benefit society.
