Anyone who would like to learn more about Freemasonry, or are just curious and would like a peek inside may attend. Members and their family are also invited to come share the day. The event will be held at the West Toledo Masonic Complex located at 5025 Secor Rd, Toledo Ohio 43623 between 6:30pm-8:30pm.
Freemasonry is the worlds oldest and largest men's fraternity in the world. Thirteen signers of the constitution and 14 presidents of the United States including George Washington were Freemasons. Today there are 2 million Freemasons in North America alone, 110,000 of which are Ohio Masons. The origins of Freemasonry are rooted in the guilds of stonemasons, who built the castles and cathedrals during the Middle Ages. Tools and objects used by the stone masons have been adapted as symbols in the ceremonies of modern freemasonry to teach moral lessons; known worldwide as a symbol of character, charity and friendship. The square and compass design is the emblem of every Masonic lodge. Today freemasonry is a fraternity that brings together good men from various political, social, ethnic and religious backgrounds to work to improve themselves and their community in the spirit of brotherly love, relief and truth.
