How to Join.

We always welcome new members who live, work or study in the Rutland area and wish to join and become a Freemason.

Freemasonry is the world's largest and oldest secular fraternal order, crossing all religious boundaries to bring men together of all countries, sects, and opinion in peace and harmony. Its members have included major religious figures, kings, and presidents. To join the brotherhood, you must demonstrate the values that have been shared by millions of Masons for hundreds of years.

To enquire about joining please go to the Contact Us page from the main menu of our website to complete the enquiry form.

  • You might think that to become a Freemason is quite difficult. It's actually straightforward. You do not have to wait to be invited. That is one way of doing so however, if you wish to become a Freemason and join our Lodge then simply contact us using this email address no51pag@gmail.com where we will set up an interview and informal meeting with you.

  • Every Freemason has his own reason for joining. For many, Freemasonry acts as a 'constant', providing them with a unique combination of friendship, belonging and structure, with many Freemasons saying they have made valuable lifelong friendships. Above all and for most, Freemasonry is simply an enjoyable hobby. Other reasons include; 

    Achievement – progressing through the offices in the Lodge to become Master. 

    Brotherhood – making new friends from all walks of life. Charity – contribute to deserving causes, both Masonic and non-Masonic 

    Education – learning from peers and mentors by practising and making speeches. Knowledge – finding out about the history and mysteries of Freemasonry. 

    Self improvement – making a contribution to your family, society and local community. 

  • Meet people from very different walks of life whilst gaining satisfaction from helping others less fortunate than yourself, you'll gain self-confidence and your ability to learn will increase. 

  • Have a Belief in a God. All religions are welcome and respected. Male and normally at least 21 years old. Not have a criminal record. 

  • You don't have to be well-off to become a Freemason. It costs less than you may think and is comparable to other social clubs and societies.
