How do I become a Freemason?…Ask!
For a Fraternity steeped in over four hundred years of tradition, you might think it is difficult to become a Mason.
It is. There is one major hurdle each candidate must pass.
They must ask.
Freemasonry in Utah accepts no one for membership unless they come of their own free will and accord.
There are few other requirements. You must:
- Be a man, (eighteen or older).
- Believe in a Supreme Being.
- Have a Mason who has known you for at least 6 months sign your petition.
- Live an ethical and moral life.
- Have a strong interest in the Fraternity and desire to participate in its charities and its activities.
We believe that men are first made Masons in their hearts, then they ask to join our Fraternity. Freemasonry will take these men - good men in their communities - and help them become better men.
If by chance you don’t know any Masons personally who can sign your petition, there is certainly a way around it. We can set up a meeting with you, usually in some casual setting, and get to know each other. Then after 6 months, we will be able to sign a petition.
