Bro. Williams-
Thank you for your email.
The reaction from the public to our awareness campaign has been quite positive. We have learned that there is a great deal of curiosity among the general public as to what Freemasonry is and who the Freemasons are. The campaign leads them to this site which provides some very basic information, as well as being able to interact with Masons and have their questions answered.
Because there is a lot of uncertainty as to what the requirements are for membership, what the process is, how to start, etc. we have been able to answer these questions for a number of men who were already interested in the Fraternity. We have also been able to send them in the right direction to get the answers to the questions they have to decide whether Freemasonry is right for them. Finally, we’ve also introduced men to Freemasonry who may not have been familiar with us, or may have had misconceptions. Membership has been growing during the time we have been engaged in the campaign, and the awareness effort has been key to that growth.
