The purpose of Job's Daughters International is to promote love and friendship among young women. It gives its members the foundation on which to build the qualities needed to become leading, organizing, and contributing partners of society. It broadens the horizons of young women by bringing them into contact with people from other cultures within the United States and foreign jurisdictions such as Canada, the Philippines, Australia, and Brazil.
Purpose
The object of this organization is to band together girls for spiritual and moral up building, to seek knowledge, to teach love of God, love of Country, respect for its Flag, love of home and family, and reverence for the teachings of the Holy Scriptures.
Object
Girls between the ages of 10 and 20 who is a relative of a Job's Daughter Majority Member, or a Master Mason or so related to his wife or widow. Relatives include cousins, step families and adoptions.
Our Order does not stress any specific religious beliefs. It just encourages belief and trust in God.
Who May Join?
You must complete a petition and submit it to a local Bethel. The petition will be read at a meeting, after which a few of the Bethel's members will visit you and answer your questions about Job's Daughters. Your initiation will be held shortly after the visit. An initiation into Job's Daughters does not involve embarrassing rituals or test of courage as do in the infamous initiations of college and childhood clubs; instead, it is a reverent and meaningful ceremony in which you are introduced to the life and trials of Job by the Bethel officers.
After joining, all members are asked to attend two meetings each month. You are also asked to attend various fund raising events and service projects; however, no member is asked to do things that interfere with family, school, or church events.

Job's Daughters is a service oriented, non-profit organization created to unite girls who share the common bond of a Masonic heritage. This enables them to learn leadership skills, organizational methods, and the importance of fulfilling individual responsibilities within a group. By planning their own activities, the daughters have fun doing what they want to do and at the same time creating lasting friendships.
