Freemasons

Who are Freemasons?

The Free & Accepted Masons are a fraternal organization, rich in history, of men working towards “making good men better”. We are involved in the betterment of one’s self and the giving to charity. We live our lives “upon the square”.

Masons come from all walks of life. We are teachers, business people, doctors, lawyers, pharmacists, police, firemen, EMT’s, barbers and deli-men. Our common purpose is “making good men better”.

Where can I find Freemasonry?
Masonry is everywhere – You may have seen the signs of Masonry in your community, at the movies, historic buildings, or maybe know some Masons in history.
There are over 130 lodges in the State of New Jersey. You may recognize one of their buildings in your community or road signs as you drive. Just look for the Masonic symbol.

How do I become a Mason?


The Masons have a saying, “To Be 1, Ask 1”.  This means you can ask any Mason how you can become a Mason, and they’ll direct you. Don’t know any Masons? Drop us a note via the “Contact Us” page and we’ll  contact you.
