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.
