Friday evening Brother Darren Scott, of St. Gabriels Lodge, was exalted into Llantarnam Royal Arch Chapter becoming a “Companion”. He was exalted by Excellent Companions Tom Delaney, Alyn Chown and Jonathan Davies.

L to R: Excellent Companions Alyn Chown and Tom Delaney, Companion Darren Scott, Companion Jamie Scott (Darrens Proposer) and Excellent Companion Jon Davies.

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 a Master Mason then please speak to your Royal Arch Chapter representative.

Congratulations to the Lodge of Progress on the manner in which they installed the new Master, Worshipful Brother Stuart John. A small Lodge that punches above its weight, with over £780 given to charity.

Brothers Christopher Hale, Raymond Han, Gareth White, Richard Wakeling and Michael Goldwyn, pictured together with Owain Harris Stevens, were treated to a unique ceremony.
The ceremony was choreographed to cater for the 5 brethren being conducted around the Temple as a single group. As a result of many hours of practice and rehearsal the ceremony was conducted with military precision in an outstanding manner.

All of the officers and brethren of Henllys Lodge involved in the ceremony were congratulated on their performance by those present.
