About Us

At the Grand Royal Arch Chapter of the State of Illinois, we are a fraternity of dedicated Royal Arch Masons united by the principles of charity, benevolence, and the pursuit of truth. Our mission, “Taking Great Men Further…”, reflects our commitment to guiding men along a path of continued enlightenment and personal growth. As Master Masons, we have received the foundational light of our craft, and through the Royal Arch, we continue our journey toward greater understanding and service.

Our vision is centered on uplifting communities, particularly those impacted by autism. We believe that through selfless service, compassion, and support, we can make a profound difference in the lives of others. Together, we strive to be a beacon of hope, fostering positive change and offering assistance to those in need.

As Royal Arch Masons, we are committed to extending the reach of our fraternity by embodying the values of brotherhood, charity, and unity. We recognize that our work is never done, and it is through continued service and support that we can truly take great men—and great communities—further.
