Union Chapter No. 2 will confer the Royal Arch Degree at 6:00 p.m. on Monday, April 6.

This will be the Full Form of the degree, making it an excellent opportunity for those who haven’t witnessed it in some time, as well as for new Companions.

Due to the length of the degree, no meal will be served; however, snacks will be provided at the midway point during a brief intermission.

We encourage all who can attend to make plans to join us for this special evening.

North Central Council No. 82 held their stated meeting last night in Mountain Home.

Several guests were in attendance, including MIGM Mark Kalkbrenner along with other Grand Council and Grand Chapter officers, all there for a surprise presentation to Past GHP Michael Lockhart.

Companion Michael, who was unable to attend the recent Grand York Rite Session where he was named the recipient, was completely surprised as he received the Arkansas Grand York Rite “Fay Hempstead” Award, an honor well deserved.

Also, Mountain Home presented MIGM Kalkbrenner with a $200 donation for the CMMRF charity. In addition, Justin Hunt was designated a Knight of the Holy Land Pilgrimage and received his jewel in recognition of his $250 contribution to the Holy Land Pilgrimage Fund.

A great night for York Rite Masonry in Arkansas!
