Llantarnam Royal Arch Chapter
And we’re off in Royal Arch Chapter with the first installation after the Summer break at Llantarnam Royal Arch Chapter 7901. Great to be in the company of our Companions again.
Excellent Companions Dennis John, Tom Delaney, Alan Chown and Peter Ward.
A well attended Installation Meeting was enjoyed by all.
In England and Wales, there is an indissoluble link between Craft Freemasonry and the Royal Arch, with the Royal Arch being considered the completion of a Freemason’s journey in Pure Antient Masonry.
Craft Masons are, therefore, actively encouraged to become members of the Royal Arch to further develop and enrich their understanding of Freemasonry. If you are interested in becoming a Royal Arch Mason, you should initially talk to your Lodge’s Royal Arch Representative.
The prime qualification for admission into the Royal Arch is to be a Master Mason, of at least four weeks standing, in a Lodge under the United Grand Lodge of England, or a Lodge under a Grand Lodge recognised by it.
