Charity Walk in Association with the Royal Arch and the Craft

Please support this walk which demonstrates the indissoluble link between Royal Arch and Craft Freemasonry in Buckinghamshire.

Congratulations to Provincial Scribe E

Andrew Ludlow on his first appointment of Past Grand Standard Bearer and John Power on being promotion to Past Assistant Grand Sojourner.

First Principals Demonstration and Explanation

On 19th April 2024, Buckinghamshire First Principals Chapter No. 3305 demonstrated the ceremony of joining the Royal Arch with a narration explaining what was happening to a packed Chapter room of almost 80 Companions at Bletchley Masonic Centre.

The head of the Chapter John Stribling, assisted by Andrew Hunter, performed an excellent demonstration of the Exaltation ceremony, which is what happens when a new Companion continues their Masonic journey and joins the Supreme Degree of the Royal Arch.

To further enhance the meeting, the Project Transform Lighting and Music systems were utilised to dramatic effect by Tim Anders.

At various points throughout the meeting, the head of Royal Arch Masonry in Buckinghamshire, Graham Dearing, imparted many interesting facts and gave the origins of the various parts of the ceremony. Everyone left with an advancement in their Masonic knowledge.

Also at the meeting, Manor of Swanburn Chapter No. 8647 returned the travelling Altar of Companionship back to its starting place, having left 7 years earlier. It has been passed on between every Chapter in the Province and  it will now start another voyage for a second visit to each Chapter in Buckinghamshire.

If you are a Master Mason and want to join this colourful and fun degree then just ask your Lodge Secretary for details.
