The first Order I joined outside the Craft was Rose Croix (AASR, Ancient and Accepted Rite etc.) and it remains the one that I have kept on in preference to all the others - including Royal Arch!Viewed this post and it got me thinking as I'm very interested in Rose Croix for various reasons. However, I have been informed by various members of my lodge that I would have to be a member of the Royal Arch first. I was under the impression from what I had read that the only prerequisite was to have been a master mason for a whole year and be of the christian faith.
Can anyone clarify this matter for me as Rose Croix really appeals and I could only justify time for one extra order with my first family addition on its way.
