How to Become a Mason Membership is open to men who are residents of Texas, age 18 and older, who believe in a Supreme Being, and meet the qualifications and standards.  Men of all creeds, ethinic and religious backgrounds are welcome.  There is an initiation fee for each of the three degrees and after becoming a Master Mason, our annual dues are currently $150 per year. One of Masonry's traditions is that we do not solicit members.   Men must seek membership on their own initiative.  When you're ready to join, you can complete the Petition Form to print a PDF form for the Petition For The Degrees in Freemasonry.  When you have completed the Petition, it must be signed by two Masons who recommend you for membership.  Look at the Lodge calendar on this website or contact the Lodge Secretary at 972-242-4669 or email him and come to one of our Lodge events that has a meal.  Alternatively, call Ken Cochran at 972-418-6446 or email Ken.  We would like to have you as our guest at one of our dinners where you can see our facility and meet some Masons to sign your petition.  Also bring your birth certificate as it is required. The Lodge will schedule visits in your home with three selected Masons to discuss your application and to answer your questions.  Your application will be voted upon by the members at the next Lodge meeting.  You will be notified of your acceptance as a candidate for the degrees, and you will receive instructions about the three degree ceremonies.  The degrees explain Freemasonry and give you the opportunity to experience the Lodge's traditions and fellowship.
