Catenarian Chapter No. 3491
Founded 30th September 1922
WHY SHOULD YOU TAKE THE NEXT STEP?
The preliminary Declaration in the Book of Constitutions states that:
"Pure Ancient Masonry consists of Three Degrees and no more, viz; those of The Entered Apprentice, The Fellow Craft and The Master Mason, including the Supreme Order of the Holy Royal Arch."
We therefore consider that Core Freemasonry consist of four interdependent steps:
1) Entered Apprentice
2) Fellow Craft
3) Master Mason
4) Royal Arch Companion
Have you taken your fourth step by joining the Royal Arch?
