Getting Started
The first step to becoming a Shriner is to become a Master Mason. If you are already a Master Mason, you can immediately apply for membership as a Shriner. We are seeking men of integrity, character and compassion to join us, no matter where you are in your journey.
Path to Becoming a Mason
To become a Shriner, a man must first become a Master Mason. If you are not yet a Mason, take the first step to becoming a Shriner. You will be working closely with individuals from the lodge as you move forward on the path to becoming a Shriner. Congratulations, you are on your way! Start the process of identifying a Masonic Lodge close to you.
Path to Becoming a Shriner
If you are a Master Mason in Freemasonry, you qualify and are invited to petition for membership as a Shriner. Once you begin the application process, you will be paired with a mentor who can answer all of your questions, guide you through the petition process and help you get to know members of your local chapter.
