How and Why I got into Masonry

My wife's grandfather, father and my brother-in-law are all masons, and her grandfather and my brother-in-law are members of Trinity Valley Lodge. These are three men that I have a tremendous amount of respect for, and I knew if this was an organization that they were a part of, then I wanted to be a part of it. So, I asked how to join and the rest is history.

What I Get out of Masonry

The thing that I get most our of masonry is satisfaction. Satisfaction that what learn through Masonic teachings makes me a better person. In turn, I have a chance to pass these teachings along to others which may help them to become better and make our society better to live in.
