MASONIC LESSONS

_
Masonry promised me nothing except opportunity for mental and spiritual growth and the opportunity to be serviceable to God and to my fellow man.

I came of my own free will and accord as all men in all ages have done.

I learned that Masonry is not a religion in the sense that we think of the church, but that it is a true ally of ALL religions.

I learned that Masonry is interested in the character of man as a thinking, feeling being.

I found that one grows stronger in his own religion, whatever that religion may be as a result, of Masonry.

I learned the real meaning of moral and spiritual teachings of charity, and that one’s integrity of mind and soul is his most precious possession. All that I had learned before, was enhanced by the manner in which Masonry teaches sublime lessons.

Around me, I see Brothers, some young in Masonry, and others who have been Masons for many years. Toward all I feel a bond of friendship and fellowship which is indescribable.

To have the confidence of such a group of Brothers, and to know that immutable bonds join me to them, as I am to every Mason in the world, IS INDEED A PRICELESS PRIVILEGE.

All this I have learned; and I have learned as well, that to maintain and to perpetuate all that I have received, I MUST give back my very best to Masonry and to society.


It’s what I feel.
