Q. I know a dear friend who is a Mason, but he has never asked me to join. Why? Doesn't he think I'm worthy?

​

A. Masons are prohibited from asking anyone to join. If you are interested, you must ask - your friend would most likely be thrilled if you did, because it is a great honor to sponsor a man to become a Mason! When you ask, you are paying the man a compliment - that you think highly enough of him and what he stands for that you might like to learn more about him and the Lodge. If you are just curious, ask questions. You will probably get invited to attend an event and meet some of the people.
