Request
Information
A
candidate must contact a Masonic Lodge for consideration of obtaining
membership. By requesting information, it will be necessary for you, at
your convenience, to meet with one or more brothers from Doric Lodge so
they can get to know you and answer any questions you may have about
Freemasonry. This meeting is important because these brothers will be
the signers of your petition should you still wish to pursue membership
in our Lodge. After meeting with these brethren and you decide to
petition for membership, you can either complete the petition at that
time or complete it at home and send it to the Secretary. There is a
$10.00 fee associated with submitting your petition.
Your completed petition will be
read at the next monthly Communication meeting and an Investigating
Committee will be appointed. The committee members will meet with you
and your family to cover some required material and answer any
additional questions you may have about the fraternity. They will
report back to lodge at the next monthly Communication with the results
of their visit with you. If they find in favor of recommending you for
the ballot, you will be voted on by the brothers in attendance and if
favorable, you will be contacted regarding the date of the conferral of
your first degree.
If you are truly interested in
setting the ball into motion, please provide the following information
and send us your responses. Thank you in advance for your interest in
Freemasonry and membership in Doric Lodge.
Fraternally,
Stephen A. Mills
Worshipful Master
