Mission & Purpose
Going upon the errand. This is one of the noblest causes that any Mason may enter upon during his Masonic journey. However, Masonic Relief or that ever important precept of Charity may not always take on the usual forms we have become accustom. Our brethren may require assistance from time to time and not realize it or they may not know how to seek or vocalize the assistance that is needed. The relief does not always come in the form of shelter or financial aid, on occasion the solution is as simple as providing information and guidance, while displaying a sincere concern for every Brother’s contentment and enjoyment along his Masonic travels.
The Mystic Bond of Masonic Brotherhood is the fundamental piece of our fraternity’s vast pageantry and sacred ritual. With this bond as common ground, strong, lifelong friendships form naturally between men of different generations, religions, races, economic backgrounds, or political beliefs. With this bond as common ground, strong, lifelong friendships form naturally between men of different generations, religions, races, economic backgrounds, or political beliefs. This alone is what sets us apart from other fraternal, civic, and charitable organizations.
Through the institution and adoption of The Wayfaring Man Program, resources, knowledge, and initiative have been combined unlike any way previously to ensure a positive Masonic experience for every Mason created in or affiliated with the Grand Masonic Jurisdiction of Arkansas. It is the hope and design of this program to (1) restore to active membership those Masons that have fallen to the wayside for one reason or another by allowing themselves to be suspended in their lodge(s) for nonpayment of dues, (2) engage those Masons that have kept their dues paid but have lost their zeal for the institution and are dormant in their Masonic travels, (3) advise those that seek to relocate within the jurisdiction as well as those that move in from other jurisdiction’s on the most detailed level, ensuring a positive result through the appropriate placement, (4) and lastly, to promote the wellbeing of every Mason in the jurisdiction by making this program known as a invaluable resource to be utilized by all, thus paving the way for a more engaged membership and opening up the possibility of growth in the Grand Masonic Jurisdiction of Arkansas.
