Quick answers for brethren who are thinking about taking the next step.
Who can become a Knight Mason?
Knight Masonry is open to Master Masons who are Royal Arch Masons in good standing. You do not need to be a Mark Master Mason to join. Individual Councils may have their own requirements, so specific procedures, fees, schedules, and local requirements should be confirmed with a Council or Province officer.
How do I get started?
Send us an inquiry. We will put you in touch with a Council officer who can explain the next steps and answer questions about that Council.
What does membership cost?
Fees and dues are set by each Council. Ask the Council you are considering, or contact the Province and we will help you find the answer.
Will you tell me what happens in the degrees?
No. Like other Masonic bodies, the Order keeps its ceremonies private. This site describes the degrees only in general terms.
Where and when do Councils meet?
Each Council sets its own schedule. Browse the Council directory and the Province calendar, and confirm details with the Council before attending.
