Steps to Membership

Our Membership Process

Freemasonry is relevant and needed in a world desperate for organizations dedicated to serving humanity and local communities, honorable living, tolerance, moderation, self-reliance, equality, and liberty. Your involvement starts with choosing a lodge you would like to petition for membership and asking to become a member.

You will need to obtain and complete a membership petition from a lodge member. An initiation fee of $135 will need to accompany the petition. Within approximately 45 days someone from the lodge will contact you for an interview. Your wife, friend, or parent is encouraged to attend this interview. The lodge at its next meeting will vote on your petition.

Your references will be contacted and asked to answer some general questions. This process is just so we can get a better understanding of the candidate and insure they meet our original requirements.

If your petition is approved you are on your way to becoming an Indiana Freemason.
