Grand First Principal Words

GLORY BE TO THE GREAT ARCHITECT OF THE UNIVERSE

My Companions,

I would like to thank you for the trust you have placed in me in choosing me as your Grand First Principal. I believe we have a great work ahead of us, and it will take a concerted effort to achieve our goals. First and foremost we must continue to stabilize our Chapters by supplying them with the support and tools necessary to succeed. To that effect the Grand Council has given a blanket dispensation to all Chapters in the Province to be permitted to open with a minimum of 6 Royal Arch Masons present. We hope that this will allow our Chapters the flexibility needed to perform their duties and continue to advance the candidates in their degrees.

This is also going to be an historic year for the Grand Chapter of Quebec, as it will be the first time in our history that we do a "one day class". On November 30th 2024, Master Masons from all over the Province will gather at the Montreal Masonic Temple and receive the Mark Master Mason, the Most Excellent Master and the Royal Arch Mason degrees. Companions from each of our chapters are being asked to participate in the degree work in order to make this a truly momentous event.
