New! A Simple Guide to Freemasonry

THANK YOU!

Your request for hard copies of a Simple Guide to Freemasonry has been received. We send out copies once a week, and you should expect delivery within two weeks. If you haven’t received anything then, please to send a message to communications@freemason.org

Research shows that by far, the most common introduction that current members had to the organization came from a personal connection such as a relative or colleague. In other words, not from the Internet. That’s why it’s so important that current members feel comfortable talking about Freemasonry with the people around them—and that those searching for more information are provided with simple and accurate answers.

To that end, this short booklet is designed to help current members answer some of the most common—but often confusing—questions about Freemasonry. Download and read through this guide to brush up on the basics. And share it with those around you who’d like to learn more.

Don’t worry about memorizing answers. The most powerful thing you can do is share your personal experience. Consider this a tool to help you get started.

As members, you’re encouraged to discuss your Masonic experience with people around you. It’s how the tradition stays alive, from one person to the next.
