Membership Building Together

BUILDING TOGETHER is the harmonisation of the Members’ Pathway and Archway into one membership journey tool, supporting Brethren and Companions in growing their Lodges and Chapters.

Key concepts

• When enquirers apply to join a Lodge, expectations are set that the Individual is joining FREEMASONRY and not just a Lodge. It comprises four ceremonies; three in a Craft Lodge and one in a Royal Arch Chapter, at a place of your choosing.
• Introduction of Mentors in the Royal Arch
• A Lodge Mentor and a Personal Mentor are the key people to help a Brother continue their journey to the Royal Arch
• All Companions are Champions of the Royal Arch
• The Building Together Model uses Five Hubs through which users navigate to resources, aspects relating to the Royal Arch are in all five Hubs. Attract and Continue focus on the journey from enquiry to joining (Member of Public to a Brother, and from a Brother to a Companion) and should be seen as mirroring each other as a process BUT using different vocabulary as the individual joining a Lodge will have little understanding of practices and traditions where as a Master Mason joining a Chapter will be able to understand and appreciate examples based on experiences from the Craft.
