WHAT IS A SIR KNIGHT ?
The Master Mason or Sir Knight, often becomes a second father
to the young men and boys who look up to him for guidance and
support.
The Sir Knight is always there to help his young Knights with
problems that they want to discuss. He becomes a source of information
and wisdom, but more importantly someone who cares.
To young Knights, the world can be confusing, even frightening.
Problems often seem overwhelming and impossible. The terrible
statistics we hear about today’s teenagers truly reflect their need for
guidance.
When unemployment, alcoholism, drug abuse and suicide run
rampant among the youth, the CONCERN MASON who is willing to
devote some of his time is truly a welcome ray of hope.
Although Sir Knights provide their young Knights with support,
independent thinking is stressed above all.
The Sir Knights may act like a father in many ways, but he gives
room for growth and emphasizes that the young Knights must learn to
make decisions on his own.
The Sir Knights assist in building moral character, and
contributing to the lofty principles to the life of your communities.
The Sir Knights are always striving together to prepare our
Youth Knights to be leaders for tomorrow.
The purpose being to teach the principles of good citizenship and
be trained in the values of charity and benevolence, the virtues of a
wholesome and good life.
No man stands so straight, as when he stoops to help a boy!
