We Meet on the Level, by Peter Ryan
We meet on the level, my Brothers and me,
We encourage good men into our society.
If their actions be upright and always true,
If we see integrity in all that they do.
If they seek more light and value truth,
If their own insights desire proof.
we will offer them our right hand,
And welcome them from any land.
For we judge on character not creed,
Nor on religion or wealth, but deed.
We’ll meet them on the level, my Brothers and me,
And accept them as a Mason, accepted and free.

We are looking for volunteers!

It could just as easily be about your profession, hobbies, or other interests. You are welcome to sign up for as many topics as you want.
To join the Speakers Bureau, contact the District Secretary at eugenembosh@icloud.com
