Royal Arch Chapter is intrinsically linked to Craft Freemasonry and is considered the fourth essential step in completing your ancient masonic knowledge. New members are exalted as part of a dramtic ceremony, followed by a historical teaching.
Supreme Grand Chapter
Grand Chapter is ruled over by three Grand Principals, with a Pro First Grand Principal when the First Grand Principal is a Royal Prince.
Three Principles

Companions
Members of the Royal Arch are known as Companions and meetings are called Convocations. Companions wear unique regalia.
