How do I join?
Thank you for expressing an interest in Freemasonry by seeking out this information.To become a Freemason you must meet certain qualifications to be accepted by a Lodge.
What are the qualifications?
Freemasonry is proud of its philosophy and practice of "making good men better." Only individuals believed to be of good character are favourably considered for membership.Every applicant must be 21 years of age or more and respected in his locality.
How do I find a lodge to join?
There is a popular misconception that to become a Mason one needs to be invited to join.In fact the reverse is true - a longstanding convention within Freemasonry is that it is the potential candidate who should do the asking!Some American lodges have the phrase "To be one,ask one." If you know a friend or neighbour who is a Mason and you are interested in Freemasonry,just ask him.He will be delighted to talk with you as all Masons are proud to be members of their own Lodge.
If there is no one to whom you can turn and you live in Hong Kong,please contact the Secretary of one of the three District Grand Lodges (English,Irish,or Scottish) who would be happy to arrange for you to meet some of the Brethren informally and to answer your questions.
If then you wish to join,your name will be put before a Lodge.A committee (of perhaps two or three members) will talk to you to ascertain your views and that you believe in God or a Supreme Being (Atheism and Freemasonry are incompatible).The committee will report its recommendation back to the Lodge.A vote will be taken and,if found acceptable,you will be on your way to being a fully fledged Mason and you will have joined the oldest fraternity in the world.

很多人认为,需要收到邀请才能成为一名共济会会员,这是错觉.事实情况正好相反―――共济会内部的长期惯例是由潜在的候选人自己提出申请!有些美国分会就有这种说法：“要想成为会员,先问会员”.如果您所认识的朋友或者邻居是同济会会员,并且您有意加入同济会,只需问他就可以了.他会很高兴与您交流,因为所有的共济会会员都很自豪成为他们所在分会的会员.

If then you wish to join, your name will be put before a Lodge. A committee (of perhaps two or three members) will talk to you to ascertain your views and that you believe in God or a Supreme Being (Atheism and Freemasonry are incompatible).

如果届时您希望加入,您的名字会递交给分会.一个委员会（可能由两个或三个会员组成）会与您谈话,以确定您的观点,并确定您信仰上帝或者神（无神论和同济会是水火不相容的）.该委员会将其建议反馈给所在分会.要投票表决,如果一旦发现可以接受,您很快就可以成为一名完完全全的共济会会员,您就会加入这个世界上历史最悠久的共济会.
