R:.W:.
Richard A. Wolfe., District Deputy Grand Master Welcome
to District 26 of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Free and
Accepted Masons of Florida.
Masonry is the world's first and
largest fraternal organization. It is a body of knowledge and a
system of ethics based on the belief that each man has a
responsibility to improve himself while being devoted to his family,
faith, country, and fraternity. The mission of Freemasonry is to
promote a way of life that binds like-minded men in a worldwide
Brotherhood that transcends all religious, ethnic, cultural, social
and educational differences; by teaching the great principles of
Brotherly Love, Relief and Truth; and, by the outward expression of
these, through its fellowship, its compassion and its concern, to
find ways in which to serve God, family, country,
neighbors and self.
As Masons, we lead by example, give back to our communities, and
support numerous Masonic philanthropies. We invest in children, our
neighborhoods, and our future. The aim is to build a better world by
building better men to work in their own communities.
Freemasonry does not solicit membership. All of its members have
asked to become members by seeking out a member and asking for a
petition to join. If you are considering petitioning a local Lodge
and are hoping of coming into the Lodge with the expectation that
membership will provide social or business gain, you will be
disappointed. That is not its purpose, though Freemasonry is known
as a worthy organization and membership carries with it a great
amount of prestige.
Freemasonry is a fraternity that has existed for hundreds of years
throughout the free world. Friendship, morality and brotherly love
are practiced daily to allow good men to live in harmony with family
and friends. Our charities are available to all in need and doors of
our Lodges are always open to those that inquire or seek admission.
Fraternally,
R:.W:.
