Pennsylvania Freemason Testimonial for Membership

Have you ever wondered what it’s like to be a Freemason? You may know it’s the oldest and largest fraternity in the world, but wonder what secrets lie behind a clouded veil of mystery.
If this is your perception, you’re not alone. But in reality, Freemasonry is alive and well, and its members are willing to speak openly about how it influences their lives, their families, and their communities. We recently interviewed some Brothers from Pennsylvania about their experiences as part of the fraternity.

I’m a Freemason and from England and I agree from the brothers on here I’m a first time worshipful master and enjoying the journey 🤩

[@maxdondada]

Great video gentleman. Ignore all the naysayers. I’ve always wanted to become a mason.

[@TheRealist2022]

@Max Jerome Then Google your local Masonic Lodge and apply via their website.

[@ronnieedforsjr.5969]

I’m about to finally petition with the Fulton, Illinois lodge. Many of my uncles are/were masons so I feel I owe it to them to become part of something bigger than “our” family! I’m very excited!

[@TheRealist2022]

@Ronnie Edfors Jr. Good for you. I look forward to the time when I may call you "Brother".

[@b.pur9981]

Ronnie. How was your process?

[@ceedub_1983]

I just had my first interview with the brothers. They are currently voting on whether or not I may join. I’m excited 👌🏻

[@bangbangtv6847]

How did it go ?

[@ceedub_1983]

@@bangbangtv6847 They voted for me to join 👌🏻 My initiation ceremony will be held in September. Thanks for asking.

[@lynnzucco5049]

Don't do it. I know a good police officer who was a freemason and backed out of it before becoming a 33-degree mason because they required him to marry a little boy. They trick you along the way, and you end up becoming a criminal with secrets. They threaten to kill you if you tell.

I grew up on the grounds of the Masonic Village (then called the Masonic Homes) in Elizabethtown, PA. Now that I have surrendered my life to Jesus Christ I realize the teachings of Freemasonry do not align with my beliefs.

[@MasonicVillages]

Freemasonry welcomes men of every religion, race, age, income, education and opinion. However, to join Freemasonry, one must meet the following qualifications: • Male • At least 18 years of age • Hold a belief in the existence of a Supreme Being • Good moral character • Motivated to join for reasons unrelated to personal gain or profit • Prompted by a favorable opinion of Freemasonry • Eager to gain knowledge • Willing to be part of the long-standing traditions of the fraternity.

Amen! Satan is a liar and these guys are being deceived and taking a risk on where they will be for eternity. ✝☦😇🥰😍🥲😋❤💯👍

[@noelwright1165]

And the church's all have a history of covering up child abuse by its elders and priests so what's your point exactly? There will always be bad eggs in every basket no matter if the where masonic regalia or church regalia or a police uniform ect ect ect.... having a go at masons while ignoring what's going on in your own back yard hmmm

God bless you all

I now I first have to get my act together and quit my drinking while grounding myself. I truly love people and long to give back as my family has funded me and my rent. I want to be self reliant and become a Mason if they do truly help others and the community. I’m pretty sure that’s all I want. “If you say you want to do something and actually do something then do it” I’v been slowly building my will power back from scratch. I am going to join. I want to better myself, but just has strongly want a sense of helping others aswell.

[@lindakingshields1126]

You can accomplish this! Stand Strong!!

[@coreytheisen6948]

U don't have to help the community to be a mason. And plenty of masons drink

[@glendagaskin151]

If you truly want to make a change for good you should listen to the Word of God. Jesus has written a book that offers a new life.

Please watch Pastor Kevin LA Ewing's teaching on Freemasonry on his KZbin channel.

[@Nephilim12340]

I know a freemason through work and there used to be several in my family. I remember talking to him about it just over a year ago and I decided it’s something I want to get involved in. Just asked my coworker what my first step is. Very excited at the thought of being part of this brotherhood. “To become one, ask one”

[@TheRealist2022]

@Kevin Wells How did you do Kevin?

But what if a man is gay? Why do I have the feeling that is a no no.

[@MasonicVillages]

Freemasonry is a brotherhood of men who share one common goal: To help each other become better men. It is the oldest, largest and most widely known fraternal organization in the world. Men from all different backgrounds and walks of life come together as equals and improve their character by applying the timeless virtues of brotherly love, charity and truth to their everyday lives.

[@Heartless-oi3sp]

Can you be a freemason if you've been to jail?

[@MasonicVillages]

[@TheRealist2022]

@Heartless Generally, no. However, there can be some extenuating circumstances, such as if just did something stupid as a kid AND have lead a good life since. It is UNLIKELY your application would be successful, though. You'd need to apply to your local Lodge and tell them all the circumstances. It's then up to them to decide if you qualify, or if your conviction is of such a magnitude that your application cannot go proceed.

@@jacobsladder6715 Not quite true. It is PREFERRED that we do not divulge the details of the ceremony as it is best that a Candidate experience it afresh, but the only actual parts of the ceremony we are PROHIBITED form divulging, are the traditional modes of recognition... the sign, grip and word of the Degree being worked. Check your ritual book
