You've become a Mason... now what?
For many new Masons, the journey doesn't become confusing until after the initiation ceremony. Everyone else seems to know where to sit, what to wear, when to speak, and how everything works. Meanwhile, you're left wondering if you're the only one with questions.
You're not.
The New Mason's Survival Handbook is the practical guide every new Brother wishes he'd received after his initiation.
Written by Past Master W. Bro. Troy Henderson, this warm, conversational handbook doesn't reveal Masonic secrets or replace your lodge mentor. Instead, it fills the gap between meetings by answering the questions that almost every new Mason has-but few know who to ask.
Inside you'll discover:
- What happens after your initiation
- How to feel comfortable at your first Lodge meetings
- Where to sit, what to wear, and what to expect
- How to build lasting friendships with your Brothers
- The importance of fellowship and the Festive Board
- Finding mentors and learning from experienced Masons
- Overcoming the fear of ritual and memorization
- Ways to become an active, valued member of your Lodge
- Practical advice that will help you enjoy every step of your Masonic journey
Written with humor, encouragement, and decades of Masonic experience, this isn't a book about memorizing ritual or studying symbolism. It's about becoming part of the Lodge family and discovering the joy of Freemasonry one meeting at a time.
Whether you're an Entered Apprentice, Fellowcraft, newly raised Master Mason, or a mentor looking for the perfect gift for a candidate, The New Mason's Survival Handbook will become a trusted companion throughout the first years of your Masonic journey.
Every experienced Mason was once the new Brother wondering where he belonged. This handbook will help you discover that you already do.
