Washington, D.C. Masons, members of the Free and Accepted Masons of Washington, D.C. Freemasonry is first and foremost a fraternity. It is also a "Way of Life." The brotherhood of man under the fatherhood of God is primary this means that its activities should always be designed to promote friendship, morality and brotherly love.

Masons are a unique institution that has been a major part of community life in America for over 250 years. It is America's oldest and largest fraternity, and one that continues to be an important part of many men's personal lives and growth.

Masons are an organization of men bound together with a philosophy of moral standards, mutual understanding and brotherhood on which all men are level and equal.

Although Freemasonry is not a religion, its emphasis on the Fatherhood of God ensures that the Brotherhood of Man follows naturally. This, coupled with the obligation to abide by the Golden Rule, particularly with a fellow Mason, makes for one of the strongest bonds of society.
