We welcome all men who wish to become better men, husbands, fathers and members of the community. We accept men regardless of race, religion, ethnicity or nationality. We meet for dinner on Thursday evenings from 6:30 pm to 7:30 pm at 5201 Maple Drive, Pleasant Hill, Iowa. If you are interested in becoming a member, you need only "ask", meet the qualifications, and be accepted by a Lodge. We urge you to consider what we have to offer you and your family.

If you would like to join our Lodge, you may fill out a Petition for Membership and bring it with you to any of our public meetings. Your petition will be reviewed by a committee of Master Masons and brought to a vote before the Lodge when the review is complete. Candidates are admitted only on the unanimous consent of those present.

• Every Freemason asserts his belief in God, and in the immortality of the soul.

• A Freemason believes that how he worships God is his own business, and how every mason worships God is his own business.

• Accordingly, masons believe fervently in freedom of religion.

• Freemasonry offers no pathway to salvation. That must be sought and found in a Mason's own place of worship, which he is encouraged to attend       and to support.

• Because religion and politics are so often used to drive men apart, they may not be discussed in any Masonic Lodge.

• Freemasonry seeks to give men of all creeds a way to meet in brotherhood and mutual respect, to join together in common causes to benefit those     in need.

• If a Mason's own religious beliefs require of him a voluntary life of caring and sharing, of attention to the needs of the less fortunate, Freemasonry      offers a variety of charitable outlets to satisfy his compassion. To that extent, Masonry strives to be the ideal partner of any moral religion.

• A Mason must never put his duties and responsibilities to Masonry ahead of his duties and responsibilities to his family, to his God, to his job,               neighbors or to his country.
