WHAT ABOUT FAMILY COMMITMENTS?
If you think you want to become a mason, it is as well to get your spouse or partner onside. One of the advantages of being a member of the International Order of Co-Freemasonry is that if they too are genuinely interested, they can become a mason as well. This is not possible with other masonic orders which do not admit men and women both.
It is advisable to discuss your intended membership with your partner. They are welcome to visit us to see what is involved and have any uncertainties resolved.
Family responsibilities are acknowledged and should therefore take their natural place in the order of things. No lodge would wish its members to jeopardise their family, relationship or job for the sake of masonry.
Masonry is a way of life and is not just something that happens in lodge so that proper handling of family and other commitments is part of the skill set a good mason is supposed to have in the organisation of the twenty-four hours of the day.
