I AM AN ODD FELLOW:

I believe in the Fatherhood of God,

and the Brotherhood of Man;

I believe in Friendship, Love, and Truth as the basic guides

to the ultimate destiny of all mankind;

I believe my home, my church or temple, my lodge,

and my community deserve my best work, my modest pride,

my earnest faith, and my deepest loyalty,

as I perform my duty “to visit the sick, relieve the distressed,

bury the dead and educate the orphan” and as I work

with others to build a better world, because, in spirit and in truth,

I am and must always be, grateful to my Creator, faithful to my country

an fraternal to my fellow-man.

I AM AN ODD FELLOW!
