The Order of the Royal Arch is the final part of the four-stage journey from Initiation to Exaltation that is known as ‘Pure Antient Masonry’ – and is available to every Master Mason of at least four weeks standing, and I encourage all masons to consider this important stage. It is a friendly, colourful and rewarding experience.
Members of the Royal Arch meet in Chapters and are called Companions. Each Chapter has Three Principals who rule conjointly and normally serve in each of the Three Principals chairs for one year.
On this site you will find details of our 70 chapters that meet throughout the Province of Sussex and for details or any enquiries, please feel free to get in touch with us using the contact form.
For whatever reason you are visiting us today, a very warm welcome awaits
Rather than working on buildings like the masons of old, today’s Freemasons focus on building themselves as people of integrity, and membership provides the structure to help achieve that goal.
One of the oldest social organisations in the world, Freemasonry is not defined by an ideology. It is open to people from all religions and political persuasions and provides the common foundation for friendships between members, many of which will last for life.
With a membership of more than 150,000 people drawn from communities across the UK, Freemasonry brings people together irrespective of their race, religion or any other perceived differences that can divide us as a society.
Whether participating in events, fundraising for a charitable cause or volunteering for public or community organisations, service is at the very heart of Freemasonry. Our members make valuable contributions by donating time, resources and skills.
