In this episode of The Derbyshire Freemasons Podcast, Chris is joined by Harry Paterson to talk about the vision and purpose behind the Cornucopia Chapter of Service; an exciting new addition to Derbyshire Royal Arch Freemasonry.

The conversation explores how the Chapter has been created to serve all Royal Arch Chapters across the Province, providing practical support, ceremonial assistance, and a flexible, service-led approach where it is most needed. Harry explains how Cornucopia will operate, the inspiration behind its formation, and why it represents such a positive step forward for the Royal Arch in Derbyshire.

This episode highlights a Chapter built on collaboration, inclusion, and service which is designed to strengthen Chapters, support Companions, and enhance the overall Royal Arch experience throughout the Province.

Whether you are deeply involved in the Royal Arch or simply curious about how Derbyshire continues to innovate and grow, this episode offers a fascinating insight into a Chapter dedicated entirely to service.

In this episode, Chris and his Proposer, Matthew Wainwright, share their experiences of taking the fourth regular ceremony in Freemasonry; exaltation into the Royal Arch. They talk about what it means to complete the Masonic journey begun in the Craft, the surprises and insights they found as new Companions, and how the Royal Arch has brought new depth and meaning to their friendship.

If you are a current Entered Apprentice, or Fellowcraft Freemason, you may wish to save this podcast until you are a Master Mason - because Matt & Chris discuss some aspects and scenarios of the Third Degree & Royal Arch Ceremony.

Join us for an open conversation on fellowship and the sense of fulfilment that comes with completing the initial part of your masonic journey into the Royal Arch.
