"Dans mon pays d’origine, le
Chili, mon cher père avait des amis Francs-Maçons. Et il
était intéressé à le devenir. En plus, le Président de
la république à l’époque, le Dr Salvador Allende, était
aussi Franc-Maçon. Après le coup d’état, mon père a dû
fuir et il a perdu ses contacts. Alors depuis ce temps,
j’avais 8 ans, j’ai toujours entendu de bons
commentaires sur la Maçonnerie.

"Depuis que j'ai été initié,
j'ai été assez surpris de ce que chaque membre vit sa
Maçonnerie à des degrés différents. Mais je suis encore
plus surpris de l'accueil réservé à chaque Frère, quel
que soit l'endroit où il se rend. Dès les toutes
premières secondes, on lui ouvre les bras comme un
membre de la famille qu'on n'avait pas vu depuis
longtemps." |

"I always was attracted by the
Masonic Logo without really knowing what it was. I
remember noticing the bumper stickers logo on cars as I
was sitting in the back seat of my parents’ cars. One
time when I was older, I was walking back from the
university, and I saw a few cars with the Masonic logo
on their bumper. But, my interest towards Masonry really
started when I was working night shift in 1998. A
colleague of mine was talking about a secret society
named "Freemasonry"." |

"I had been aware of the
fraternal aspect of Masonry but wondered what it is
those guys do at meetings. The rituals and dense history
of the craft intrigued me. I was attracted to the strong
moral code as well. I have always had an interest in
spiritualism and mysticism but never wished to join any
organized church. The more I found out the more I
realized that this fulfilled much that was lacking in my
life. I knew it was for me. " |

"My motivation to join was
mostly due to my father and grandfather. They were both
Masons and consequently great men. Many say that I take
after my father and if I become even just half the man
he became, I’ll be happy. " |

"At the time of this writing it
has been just over a year since my initiation and I
thought that with the launch of this new website it
would be the perfect opportunity for a bit of
introspection. I also hope that other young masons will
share their thoughts and experiences in the craft, in
fact we have created a section of the Rough Ashlar
specifically for these
testimonials." |
