Membership
Join a Masonic Lodge
Freemasonry accepts all men of good character. There are very few limitations, but there are some important exceptions.
Freemasonry requires a belief in a deity, for no atheist may become a Mason. It also requires a clean moral life, for a Mason must also be a good citizen. Freemasonry strives to teach a man the duty he owes to God, his country, his neighbor, and himself. It inculcates the practice of every virtue and makes extensive use of symbolism in its teachings. It does not interfere with religion or politics and will not countenance any argument or contention within the Lodge in connection with an attempt to influence the religious or political beliefs of any person.
In Rhode Island, a man must be 18 years old to join.
