About Freemasonry

What Is Masonry?

Masonry is the world's first and largest fraternal organization. It is guided by the enduring belief that each man has a responsibility to make the world a better place.

For over 300 years, Freemasonry has enhanced and strengthened the character of individual men by providing opportunities for fellowship, charity, and the search for truth — within ourselves and the larger world.

The fraternity finds it important to connect with other men of honor, compassion, love, trust, and knowledge, regardless of their race, color, religious beliefs, political views, sexual orientation, physical ability, citizenship, or national origin.

Why Become a Freemason?

Brotherhood built on shared values — here's what you can expect when you join Algabil-Freedom Lodge.

Making True Friends

Masonry is a community of men and their families who share similar beliefs and values. We connect men of honor, compassion, love, trust, and knowledge — we are friends and brothers, connected through this vital and uplifting organization.

Community Service

Today in North America, the Masonic Fraternity gives almost $2 million each day to causes including children's hospitals, childhood language disorders, eye disease treatment, medical research, local community service, and Masonic Homes.

Having an Impact

As a member, you are part of a worldwide organization that values tradition, history, and timeless wisdom. Our core values endure for centuries because of our direct impact in our community, through our charities, and on a personal level.

Our Purpose

Mission & Vision

Mission

Promote Growth. Improve Lives.

Our mission is to promote personal growth and improve the lives of others. We take responsibility for the well-being of our brothers, our families, and the community as a whole. We value respect, kindness, tolerance, and our differences — religious, ethnic, cultural, generational, and educational — and strive for harmony in our individual lives, in our lodge, and in the global community.

Vision

A Place Where Brotherhood Thrives

Algabil-Freedom is a place where men of all races and beliefs gather to share in fellowship, self-improvement, and service to community. Our members have a keen sense of pride in our lodge and are actively seeking ways to improve our unity. We understand and practice what it means to be a Mason inside and outside of the lodge — supporting our brothers, families, widows, and our community.
