On the 14th of September, Brother Paul Johnson of the Guild of Freemen Lodge No. 3525 took an important step in his Masonic journey, being exalted into the Chapter of Reunion No. 5618 at Mark Masons Hall.

Several brethren from the Guild of Freemen Lodge, who are also companions, joined their counterparts from the Chapter of Reunion to celebrate this significant milestone. The ceremony concluded at 1:30 pm, after which everyone gathered for a delightful and renowned Carvery Lunch. Amidst the warm fellowship, Brother Johnson shared his excitement about exploring the Royal Arch further and strengthening his bonds with fellow companions.

Joining the Royal Arch, often called ‘Chapter,’ is the fourth and final stage of Pure Antient Masonry, as outlined in the Act of Union of 1813, which established the United Grand Lodge of England.

The Guild of Freemen Lodge and Chapter warmly invite members of the Masonic community to visit and experience the camaraderie we share. If you are considering joining the Royal Arch or becoming a Freemason, we encourage you to reach out through the “Contact Us” link on our website to learn more.
