Freemasonry is a society of men concerned with moral and spiritual values. It's members are taught its precepts (moral lessons and self-knowledge) by a series of dramas enacted through ritual – a progression of allegorical two-part plays which are learnt by heart and performed within each Lodge – they will follow ancient forms, and use stonemasons’ customs and tools as allegorical guides.
Freemasonry instils in its members a moral and ethical approach to life:
it seeks to reinforce thoughtfulness for others, kindness in the community, honesty in business, courtesy in society and fairness in all things.
Members are urged to regard the interests of the family as paramount but, importantly, Freemasonry also teaches and practices concern for people, care for the less fortunate and help for those in need.
