Follow these steps to become a member:
- Talk with someone you know who is a member of the Fraternity
- If you do not know anyone who is a Mason, just contact a lodge in
your neighborhood
- Masons do not solicit for members. You'll need to express
your personal interest in joining the Fraternity
- Complete a petition for membership and return it to your local
lodge with your degree fees
- Three members will meet with you to answer your questions
- Your petition will be presented for secret ballot. If
accepted, you will be notified to appear to receive the first of three Degrees of Masonry
