PERSEVERANCE ROYAL ARCH CHAPTER NO. 21
For many Master Masons, the Masonic journey continues long after receiving the Third Degree. The Royal Arch Degrees build upon the lessons of Craft Masonry, offering a richer understanding of its history, symbolism, and enduring teachings.
At Perseverance Royal Arch Chapter No. 21, you'll find meaningful ritual, engaging education, lasting friendships, and a welcoming group of men who are committed to preserving our traditions while enjoying the fellowship that makes our Chapter unique.
More Than a Meeting
Perseverance Royal Arch Chapter No. 21 is a place where tradition and friendship come together. We are committed to preserving the excellence of Pennsylvania Royal Arch Masonry through meaningful ritual and Masonic education while fostering a Chapter where fellowship, laughter, service, and lasting friendships are just as important.
Whether gathered for a stated meeting, conferring a degree, supporting the Ronald McDonald House, or simply enjoying each other's company, we believe the strongest Chapters are built on both exceptional ritual and genuine brotherhood.
Ritual with Purpose
Our ritual is at the heart of everything we do. We are dedicated to preserving the traditions of Pennsylvania Royal Arch Masonry while providing engaging education that brings our degrees, history, and symbolism to life.
The Fun Chapter
Royal Arch Masonry is about more than meetings. It's about building lasting friendships with Companions who enjoy fellowship, laughter, and supporting one another. We take our ritual seriously—but we never forget to have fun along the way.
Beyond the Red Room
Some of our best memories are made outside our meetings. From our annual gathering at ABC Brewery to bowling nights and other outings, we enjoy building friendships that last well beyond the Chapter room.
Charity in Action
Our support of Ronald McDonald House Charities® reflects our commitment to service. From our auctions and collecting soda tabs to preparing meals for guest families, we are proud to support the Grand Chapter of Pennsylvania's official charity.

Make Your Mark
Since tracing its heritage to 1818, Perseverance Royal Arch Chapter No. 21 has welcomed generations of Master Masons who chose to continue their Masonic journey through the Royal Arch.
Each has recorded a unique Mark, creating a living history that includes distinguished men such as Simon Cameron, civic and state leaders, Past Grand Masters, Past Grand High Priests, and countless others who have strengthened our Chapter. Today, that tradition continues.
