  Mission Statement

The Mission of Freemasonry is to:

Be a quality organization that provides its members opportunities to develop their spiritual, character, and leadership potential;

Be serviceable to our members and their families by providing support and assistance in a variety of forms;

Provide members and their families with opportunities for fellowship and friendship with other like-minded individuals;

Be serviceable to the community at large by Lodge participation in civic and charitable activities; and through the honest, fair and courteous actions of individual members.


  The Vision

Freemasonry in Missouri shall be:

A preeminent organization for men of quality, regardless of race, religion, or creed; consistently delivering, by symbols, allegory and example, a moral code founded on the highest standards of ethics, honesty and strength of character.

A fraternal organization committed to charity, true fellowship and brotherly love under the Fatherhood of God; and

A relevant organization dedicated to gratifying, involving and educating members and their families in the community, where the Lodge is a vibrant, respected and contributing part of community life.

The organization must be committed to excellence, to maintaining quality programs and the quality use of time, and to forging alliances within the community designed both to help the community and to develop the character of Masons.

A man who becomes an Missouri Mason can expect to find in his fraternity the opportunity to learn and lead; to be inspired and entertained; to be challenged and respected; to be involved with his family, his Brothers and his community; and to be a proud member of an organization committed to making a difference.
