How to join Freemasonry
FREEMASONRY REGISTRATION STEPS
The process of joining the Freemasonry is divided into two (02) steps. Which are the ONLINE REGISTRATION process, which entails the collection and submission of your information for verification through our email or WhatsApp, and the PHYSICAL INITIATION ceremony which is the baptism process. It is very important to note that the initiation which is your baptism is done physically in a Masonic lodge and not online.
The registration process into the Freemasonry family is done by simply filling and submitting the application form to the authorities in control for a complete background check. You can submit the form either through WhatsApp or via email address. This process takes a period of at least one week depending on the number of applicants we have for that period. There are two possible outcomes after submitting your application form:either your result turns out to be positive or negative.
If your result is negative, you will only be able to reapply again next year when we launch the new registration program for 2025/2026. This negative result may be due to the submission of inaccurate or probably false information. So always endeavor to submit the right information and follow all instructions for a quicker review.
But if after a complete verification your result is positive, which means you have been accepted to join this great family, then you will receive a sample of your membership card via email or WhatsApp media from the identification department. When you receive this soft card sample, you will have to verify and confirm to the identity card department if all entries on the card are correct so they can print and stamp it for shipment to your lodge of interest, which you will have to go and collect upon its arrival.
The membership card is the only official document that permits every member to enter the lodge for any reason. This is because we do not permit strangers to enter the lodge. At the gate, the security system will need your card for screening before letting you enter the lodge.

These requirements refer to items that are necessary to be available in order to perform your initiation into the Freemasonry fraternity. These items are

After you have submitted your information in the form for verification and your request to join is approved, these items will be packaged and shipped through DHL to the lodge where your initiation ceremony will take place. As soon as these items arrives your lodge, the authorities in charge of that lodge will send you an invitation letter through your membership account inviting you to come for your initiation ceremony. So, to see this message, you will have to log into your personal account. This invitation messages will talk about the Date, Time, Location and complete Rundown program of your initiation ceremony.
