Our Mission and Our Lodge
Our VISION is that San Mateo Lodge # 226 will be recognized as a Leader of Masonic Lodges, with members who are well-versed in the core values of freemasonry, who strive to practice these values in their daily lives; with their communities, their friends, and their families.

Our MISSION is that San Mateo Lodge #226 is a Masonic Organization that provides a great opportunity for men of good rapport to become better individuals through Masonic education and training; to develop deep and lasting friendships through the tenants of our Brotherhood; and to promote our Masonic Organization by demonstrating these lessons learned to our greater community.

Our CORE VALUES are reflective of those in Masonry:
- Brotherly Love (of all Mankind)
- Relief (philanthropy and charity)
- Truth (spreading of the Light)

Our BELIEF that Masonry is a system of ethics and body of knowledge that include among others the belief that man has a responsibility and capability to improve himself as well as that community in which he lives, while being devoted to his faith, family, fraternity, and country.
