MISSION STATEMENT

The mission of Enoch Lodge # 9 A.F & A.M is to promote Masonry in a way that attracts new members, inspires existing members to be active and continue their Masonic education, brings value to the community, instills pride in the Lodge, and creates interaction with the entire Masonic Family. The mission of Freemasonry is brotherhood, community involvement, and self-improvement through education, family values, moral standards, and charity.

 Masonry is the world's first and largest fraternal organization. It is a body of knowledge and a system of ethics based on the belief that each man has a responsibility to improve himself while being devoted to his family, faith, and fraternity. As Masons, we lead by example, give back to our communities, and support numerous Masonic philanthropies. We invest in family, our neighborhoods, and our future.

Our Values: Our mission is guided by the enduring and relevant tenets of our fraternity--brotherly love, relief, and truth--and our core values, which include:

• Ethics: Our lives are based on honor and integrity, and we believe that honesty, compassion, trust, and knowledge are important.

• Tolerance: The fraternity values religious, ethnic, cultural, social, and educational differences. We respect the opinions of others and strive to improve and develop as human beings.

• Personal Growth: Our continuous pursuit of knowledge, ethics, spirituality, and leadership brings more meaning to our lives.

• Philanthropy: We make a difference in our communities through charitable giving, community service, and volunteerism.

• Family: We strive to be better spouses, parents, and family members. We are committed to protecting the well-being of members and their families, especially when they are in need.
