Friday 27 February was the Convocation of Perseverance Chapter at which W Bro Alan Bounds was exalted into the Supreme Order of the Royal Arch, completing his journey in Pure Antient Masonry. The Chapter was honoured to have the 2nd Provincial Grand Principal, E Comp George Clayton, as their official vistor and he was escorted by E Comp Steve Seward, Provincial Deputy Grand Director of Ceremonies.
The Chapter’s Principals, E Comp Brian Willis, E Comp Bal Lotay and E Comp Sandy Cruickshank, led their team for an excellent ceremony with some fine ritual. This was followed by a fantastic Festive Board.
We welcome Comp Alan Bounds into the Royal Arch in the Province of Northamptonshire & Huntingdonshire.
