To Improve and Elevate the Character of Man.

Our Creed

Genuine FRIENDSHIP, which heareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things, is the first step toward progress and personal enrichment, and the progenitor of Temperance, Prudence and Justice;

Unfettered LOVE, is the basis for all life's ambitions--the controlling passion of service to humanity -- more powerful than the atom -- more potent than any finite force;

Inflexible TRUTH, the imperal virtue, begets economic stability, equality under law, freedom of enterprise, the highest of ethical standards, and lasting peace, the ultimate goal of fraternity;

Universal BROTHERHOOD OF MAN under the FATHERHOOD OF GOD, is imperative to the survival of the world, and can be accomplished only through the catalysis of fellowship -- inculcating the cohesion which stems from understanding and amity among people, states and nations.
