The Masonic Degrees
     The Candidate attends three meetings to receive 
the three Masonic Degrees, concluding with the Third (or Master Mason) Degree. 
The Degrees are solemn, enlightening, and an enjoyable experience with no 
uncomfortable or embarrassing moments. It is here where the principles of 
Freemasonry are taught and where the new member learns that his family and 
his own necessary vocations are to be considered above Freemasonry. Every 
Master Mason is welcomed as a "Brother" in any of the thousands of Regular 
Masonic Lodges throughout the world.
