This is a Masonic Baptism ceremony and ritual designed for use in Masonic lodges wishing to baptize children of Masonic families. The ceremony is not religious in nature and does not compete with the baptisms of the different religions of the world. It is a solemn act of fidelity and pledge to our children that they will never be alone and that we hold dear the philosophies of Masonry.
"Fantastic addition to Freemasonry!" Cliff Porter has done a great deal for Freemasonry with the publication of this book. The act of lustration has been found in different forms in Freemasonry for centuries, and even Albert Pike championed the idea of its use. Cliff Porter has taken this idea and distilled it into a pure essence that is relative to today's Freemasonry. He beautifully shows that Masonic Baptism can be a bond between the Craft and children of brothers in the Craft, and in so doing empowers children, families, and Freemasonry as a whole. With this book he helps remind us what our core responsibilities are to the Masonic family and the world at large. Every Masonic Lodge should consider owning a copy of this book and utilizing the ritual therein.
