י VIRTUS JUNXIT MORS NON SEPARABIT י
" Whom Virtue Unites Death Shall Not Separate"

Welcome to the Internet home of the Ancient & Accepted Scottish Rite Masons of the Hibbing Lodge of Perfection in the Orient of Minnesota. The Ancient & Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry is, above all else, an educational institution. We seek not to teach men the truth but, instead, a way to the truth. Each must find the truth for himself. The degrees of the Scottish Rite do not teach specific lessons. Rather, they give parallel examples from earlier cultures, raise questions and challenge us to think. Freemasonry, in each of its branches, is a journey of self-discovery and self-development. We seek only to be a guide, teaching the common ground of various philosophical and religious approaches to belief, in order that men might be more united in their standards of right and wrong and in their understanding of the reality of God.

The Mission of the Scottish Rite, S.J.

To improve it's members and enhance the communities in which they live
by teaching and emulating the Principles of
Brotherly Love, Tolerance, Charity and Truth,
while actively embracing high social, moral and spiritual values,
including fellowship, compassion
and dedication to God, family and country.

The Scottish Rite Creed

The cause of human progress is our cause,
the enfranchisement of human thought our supreme wish,
the freedom of human conscience our mission,
and the guarantee of equal rights to all peoples everywhere,
the end of our contention.

"...If all men had always obeyed with all their hearts the mild and gentle teachings of Masonry, that world would always have been a paradise... For this is the Masonic creed: Believe in God's infinite benevolence, wisdom and justice; Hope for the final triumph of good over evil and for the perfect harmony as the final result of all the concords and discords of the universe; and Be Charitable, as God is, towards the unfaith, the errors, the follies and the faults of men; for all are of one great Brotherhood."

Albert Pike, 33° - The Meaning of Masonry, 1858

"Learn, that you may be enabled to do good; and do so because it is right, finding in the act itself ample reward and recompense."

"A Freemason should be a man of honor and of conscience, preferring his duty to everything beside, even to his life; independent in his opinions, and of good morals, submissive to the laws, devoted to humanity, to his country, to his family; kind and indulgent to his brethren, friend of all virtuous men, and ready to assist his fellows by all means in his power."

Albert Pike, 33°
