A Mason is a Man and a Brother, who trust is in God.  He meets you on the Level and acts upon the Square.  Truth is his Compass and he is ever Plumb.  He has a true Grip of all that is Rite.  He is loyal to his Order and whatever his Degree he is a Master of himself.  In the Lodge of life he wears unstained the White Lambskin of Innocence.  On his Initiation as an Entered Apprentice he travels ever East towards the Light of Wisdom.  Until he receives the final, the Divine Password that admits him into the Ineffable Presence of the Eternal Supreme Grand Master of the Universe.

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.
