Who Are The Masons?
Look at the men of character in your community, and chances are that one or more will be a Mason. Masons are often leaders in your community, your place of worship, your schools, local businesses, civic organizations, and your neighbors. Freemasons are men of honor, of integrity, of compassion. Freemasons believe in brotherly love, relief, and truth.
Have you ever asked…
What is Freemasonry?
Freemasonry is the world’s oldest and largest fraternity. It is comprised of adult men (18+) of good character from every country, religion, race, age, income, education, and opinion. Its body of knowledge and system of ethics is based on the belief that each man has a responsibility to improve himself while being devoted to his family, his faith, his country, and his fraternity.
…A place to meet outstanding individuals from all walks of life, that a person would not otherwise have had the opportunity to know and call a brother!
…A place that provides self-development opportunities, leadership training and experience, and to improve public speaking skills.
…A place where moral virtues are taught and through these teachings a regular reinforcement of the moral virtues is experienced.
…A place to spend time with a group of brothers, who by acting as good men, make me want to become a better man. Not better than others, but better than I would have otherwise been.
…A place to meet with established members of the community and to become a part of the community.
From Our Current Worshipful Master, Brother Dave Hellstern:
Make Your Own Opportunities
As Masons, we have both an opportunity to learn from and to endeavor to be better men.
At Legacy Lodge, our Brothers enjoy fine fraternal fellowship and work to better themselves through gaining a better understanding of who we are, what we do and why we choose to call ourselves Masons.
I’m proud to be a Mason; and through Freemasonry, I’ve been able to interact with and build a network of friends and brothers that I otherwise wouldn’t have had the opportunity to do so.
At Legacy Lodge, our Brothers truly have a unique opportunity to learn, grow and become a leader.
