Co-Masonry is a fraternal body committed to the same principles and purposes as Freemasonry and is indeed a branch of the Masonic tree, a branch which the tree in various ways tries to disown, but which nevertheless claims the same ancestry and rights to function in the name of Freemasonry. It differs from the established, ‘segregated’ body in two important ways: It is International ...  and it opens the doors of Ancient Freemasonry to qualified applicants without distinction of sex or race or religions.

“Let us have a revival of enthusiasm for Masonry. And let it begin with YOU!”

I am deeply conscious of the honor and privilege of serving the Co-Masonic Order in this capacity, though from an objective point of view as a critical individual member I might wish some more able Craftsman with more impressive qualifications might have been chosen. Nevertheless, I have accepted the appointment and shall devote such energies and wisdom as I possess to the work at hand and trust that He Whose Work it is will ‘give the increase.’

Freemasonry, as a tradition, is built on the spoken word. It is a mystic tradition that has been passed down from lip to hear across the centuries. It acknowledges the power of language to transform the mind of the individual and even the course of history itself. Throughout history, great changes in civilizations and the rise and fall of empires have depended on a few words, spoken into the right ear at the right time. Freemasonry places great importance on remembering the thoughts of our ancestors. It is from these thoughts that we can learn how to navigate the maze of life and avoid the pitfalls that have entrapped the unfortunate. The Masons below have all contributed to the wisdom of the world and we have selected a small portion of their knowledge to be shared here to inspire, uplift and educate.
