| What is Freemasonry? |
Freemasonry is the oldest and largest worldwide fraternity dedicated to the Brotherhood of Man under the fatherhood of a Supreme Being. Although of a religious nature, Freemasonry is not a religion. It urges its members, however, to be faithful and devoted to their own religious beleifs. The organization of Freemasonry is based on a system of Grand Lodges, each sovereign within its own territory. There is no central authority governing all Grand Lodges. However, to be acknowledged by others, acceptable traditions, standards, and practices must be maintained. In our Province the governing body is called the Grand Lodge of Canada in the Province of Ontario. It is under the leadership of a Grand Master. He presides over the 100,000 masons who belong to one or more of the 650 lodges in our jurisdiction. Each of these lodges is under the direction of a master. (READ MORE) |
