Mission Statement
The Most Worshipful Prince Hall Grand Lodge Free and Accepted
Masons of Texas and Its Jurisdiction is a non-profit organization which embodies
an attractive system of morality, veiled in allegory and illustrated by symbols.
The fraternity, founded upon Christian principles established in the Holy
Bible, strives to teach a man the duty he owes to God, his neighbor and to
himself; but interferes neither with religion or politics as it prescribes the
practice of virtues in the conduct of its business.
The foundation is character. Its purpose is service.
Its measure is giving. Making
“Good Men Better” perpetuates its foundation.
Its purpose is service, which is rendered to the people of Texas to
improve their social, cultural and economic conditions.
Its measure is giving, an act of unselfish sacrifice for the benefit of
others.
The Mission Statement is promulgated by the Most Worshipful
Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Texas and the Subordinate Lodges owing obedience to
the same and by its Supreme Authority.
Purpose
The purpose of this Most Worshipful Prince Hall Grand Lodge Free and Accepted
Masons of Texas is to control and regulate the practice of Freemasonry
throughout its Jurisdiction, in accordance with immemorial usages of this
Ancient and Honorable Craft, and to advance the moral and social interests of
its membership’s honesty, industry and upright living.
It cultivates the exercise of charity in its best and broadest sense, to
assist the Widows and Orphans of its deceased members, to stimulate friendship,
harmony and brotherly love and generally, to promote in its own way, the
happiness of mankind.
It is a fraternity of good men, linked and bound together by honorable and
unbreakable bonds of friendship and virtue, and to accomplish the noble purpose
it eschews all interest in fractional politics and sectarian religion and free
from the dictation of both.
