Grand Lodge of Free And Accepted Masons of the District of Columbia in Washington, D.C.

The Grand Lodge, F. A. A. M., of the District of Columbia is the governing body of Free and Accepted Masons in Washington, DC.

Freemasonry has been a major part of community life in the United States for over two hundred and fifty (250) years. The Craft is America's largest and oldest fraternity and is predicated on the brotherhood of man under the fatherhood of God. Freemasons seek to promote friendship, morality and brotherly love in our activities. We are bound together by a philosophy of moral standards, mutual understanding, and brotherhood in which all men are on a level and equal.

Who Can Best Serve?

Throughout our lives we are involved in a competitive system.

There may be a great deal of merit in the struggle through competition up to a certain point.

The child comes home with his report card and a grade B. The first question the fond parent asks is: “What did George get on his report card?” So firmly
entrenched are we in this system that our grades are only relatively important.
