Our History
Amani Chapter #561 became a chartered member of Modern Free and Accepted
Masons, Inc. on March 7th 2001. Amani means peace. The Webster Dictionary defines peace as 1 : a state of tranquillity
or quiet: as a : freedom from civil disturbance b : a state of security or order within a community provided for by law or
custom. There are many biblical references referring to peace within ones self and throughout God's nations.
When Amani was founded it was the ideals of the founders to bring peace based on being righteous. Through our interaction
in the communites and charity work that we do that is our focus on achieving inner peace and tranquility.
