There are essentially two questions for anyone wanting to join Alfred Robbins Lodge:
Why do I want to be a Freemason?
Although Freemasonry is not religious, it does require that every member believes in a “higher being”, so members from all religions are welcomed. Beyond that belief, successful Freemasons have two things in common – a strong desire to help their fellow man across the communities in which they live and an equal desire for self-improvement.
Some in the general public believe that Freemasonry is self-serving, that you will be able obtain more business and be let off (say) speeding fines if you’re a Freemason. Nothing could be further from the truth. The expectation of personal gain through Freemasonry is a completely wrong motive for joining and will only lead to your disappointment.
