Freemasons Kenya, District Grand Lodge of East No 3727 F & AM To be one ask one,for all enquiries contact us It was also the centre for the slave trade from Eastern Africa.

To understand the beginning and growth of Freemasonry in East Africa it is helpful to look at the history of the three East African countries. Until the latter part of the 19th Century the mainland territories of East Africa were virtually unknown to the outside world. On the other hand, for several centuries before that, Zanzibar was well known as a trading station and was visited by dhows from O

man and ships plying between Europe and India and beyond. Zanzibar was a possession of the Sultans of Oman from the 17th Century and they also laid claim to a mile long, 10 mile wide strip of the Kenya mainland coast from Kipini on the mouth of the Tana River to the Umba River in the South. The western world recognised the importance of Zanzibar as a trading post from the early 19th Century. The United States established a Consulate there in 1837, Britain in 1841 and France, Portugal, Italy, Belgium and Germany followed soon thereafter. In the second half of the 19th Century successive British Consuls wielded considerable influence on the Sultans and ultimately it became a British Protectorate in 1890. It was thereafter ruled by the Sultan but the Government was administered by a British Administration under a Resident. Sultan Seyyid Hamoud-bin-Mohammed-bin-Said, in the mid 19th Century encouraged Indian traders to establish themselves in Zanzibar and to a large extent the development of the economy of the island was due to their efforts. Copra, ivory and spices-not to mention slaves-were exported while imports included cloth, metal-ware and beads. It was throughout the 19th Century the chief emporium for trade on the African East Coast. By the end of the 19th Century there was a fairly large number of British subjects based on the island and it is thus no accident that the first Freemasons' Lodge in East Africa should be established there in 1904.

🔷 WHY FREEMASONS NEVER ASK YOU TO JOIN 🔷

One of the most common questions people ask is:

❝Why don't Freemasons invite people to become members?❞

The answer is simple: Freemasonry is built on the principle of free will.

A Freemason may tell you about the fraternity, its values, its charitable work, and the positive impact it has had on his life. He may answer your questions and encourage you to learn more. But he will never ask you to join.

Why?

Because membership must come from a sincere desire within the individual. Freemasonry seeks men who are motivated by genuine curiosity, a commitment to self-improvement, and a desire to serve humanity—not by persuasion, pressure, or personal gain.

For centuries, candidates have been expected to take the first step themselves. By asking to join, a man demonstrates initiative, independence, and a sincere interest in the principles of Brotherly Love, Relief, and Truth.

Freemasons do not recruit.
Freemasons do not pressure.
Freemasons do not solicit.

Instead, they simply say:

✨ "If you are interested, ask."

Because in Freemasonry, the journey begins with your own free choice.

"You must ask. That's the rule."

SHOULD I PAY TO JOIN FREEMASONRY?

Yes. Becoming a Freemason involves certain financial commitments and responsibilities that help support the Lodge and its charitable, administrative, educational, and operational activities.

Initiation Fee

The Initiation Fee is a one-time payment required before a candidate receives the Degree of Entered Apprentice. This fee contributes towards the costs associated with:

Conferral of the three Craft Degrees
Administrative processing and membership registration
Educational materials and resources
Lodge records and documentation
Other expenses incurred in preparing and admitting a new member

The amount of the Initiation Fee varies depending on the Lodge and the jurisdiction under which it operates.

Annual Dues

In addition to the Initiation Fee, every Freemason is required to pay Annual Dues to maintain membership in good standing.

These dues help meet the ongoing operational expenses of the Lodge, including:

Maintenance of Lodge premises and facilities
Administrative and communication costs
Charitable and community outreach programmes
Educational and member development activities
Support for District and Grand Lodge functions

Annual Dues vary from one Lodge to another and are determined according to local circumstances and the requirements of the governing Masonic authority.

A Commitment to the Craft

Freemasonry is not a commercial organisation, nor does it seek to profit from its members. The fees and dues collected are used solely to support the work, traditions, charitable endeavours, and continued operation of the Fraternity.

Prospective candidates are encouraged to enquire directly with their preferred Lodge regarding current fees, membership obligations, and payment arrangements.
