Our fraternity has a wonderful history, which dates back much more than three centuries. It is one of the world’s oldest secular fraternities, a society of men concerned with moral and spiritual values. Founded on the three great principles of Brotherly Love, Relief and Truth, it aims to bring together men of goodwill, regardless of background and differences. People might think that to become a Freemason is quite difficult. It’s actually straightforward. Any man of more than 21 years of age who cares for the world in which we live; who is prepared to practise high moral standards and seeks excellence in all he undertakes; someone who believes in family values, who is willing to contribute to the betterment of society; a law-abiding citizen, who seeks the fellowship of like-minded men; a person who believes in the equality of all men regardless of social orientation, race or creed and in the existence of a supreme being; may apply for membership.

Today Freemasons are speaking out to spread their beliefs in a world which many feel has moved away from standards which foster a caring community and ideals which nurture a better world. Membership of Freemasonry is open to men of all faiths who are law-abiding, of good character and who acknowledge a belief in a Supreme Being. Freemasonry is a multi-racial and multi-cultural organization. It has attracted men of goodwill from all sectors of the community into its membership.
