Freemasonry is one of the world's oldest and largest fraternal organizations. It is built upon the principles of Brotherly Love, Relief, and Truth, encouraging its members to become better men, better fathers, better husbands, better citizens, and better members of their communities.

Freemasonry is not a religion or a substitute for one. Instead, it is a fraternity that brings together men of good character who share a belief in a Supreme Being and a desire to improve themselves while serving others.

Through local lodges, Masons develop lifelong friendships, participate in charitable work, preserve traditions, and strengthen their communities.

The Mystic Order of Veiled Prophets of the Enchanted Realm, more commonly known as The Grotto, is an appendant body of Freemasonry.

Membership is open exclusively to Master Masons in good standing.

While every Masonic organization has its own unique purpose, the Grotto is known throughout Freemasonry as "The Premier Good Fellowship Organization."

No-Ruz Grotto combines Masonic fellowship with family activities, social events, charitable endeavors, and community involvement. We believe that some of life's best memories are made through laughter, friendship, and spending time together.

Being a Prophet of No-Ruz means becoming part of a brotherhood that extends beyond the walls of the lodge.

As a member, you'll enjoy opportunities to:

• Build lifelong friendships with fellow Master Masons.

• Participate in family-friendly events and social activities.

• Support charitable causes that make a difference.

• Take part in parades, community events, and special programs.

• Preserve more than a century of No-Ruz tradition.

• Become part of one of Evansville's most unique Masonic organizations.

Whether you're looking for fellowship, fun, or another way to become active in Masonry, No-Ruz Grotto has a place for you.
