The Rosicrucian Domain de Silence at Lachute, Quebec province, Canada.
building, you will find a very pleasant
auditorium and, above all, the biggest and
most beautiful Temple in the jurisdiction. It
is used for special occasions and can seat up
to six hundred people.
The Greater Jurisdiction
We have just referred to the headquarters of
the French-language jurisdiction, and therefore
to France. However, the activities of this
jurisdiction spread far beyond the borders of
France and include a great part of the African
continent. During the last few decades, beautiful
Temples have been built there as well, thanks to
the work and devotion of Rosicrucians in those
countries.

The Rosicrucian Beacon -- September 2006
Rosicrucian activities
are maintained everywhere in
the world where French is the
predominant language, such as
in the French West-Indies, French
Guiana, on the islands of Reunion
and Mauritius, in Madagascar,
Haiti, Belgium and Switzerland.
There are also several Affiliated
Bodies that have been active for
quite a long time in the Canadian
province of Québec. Here also is
the Rosicrucian Domain of Lachute,
not far from Montreal, where many
Rosicrucian activities are enjoyed
both in French and English. It
is here too in this domain of the
French-language jurisdiction
located on the North American
continent where the meeting of
the Supreme Board of Directors of
AMORC is held every year.
Finally, the Rose Croix University
International (RCUI) is very active in the Frenchlanguage
jurisdiction through the work of
about fifty lecturers who make presentations
on approximately 250 different subjects. This
Grand Lodge is supervising the activities of
6 Lodges, 29 Chapters and 39 Pronaoi, in
addition to which there are 78 Pronaoi of Lodges
and Chapters.
We hope this overview will serve as an
invitation for all Rosicrucians and their friends
to come and visit these various domains of the
French-language jurisdiction which are, just as all
the buildings of AMORC, “dedicated to Truth and
devoted to every Rosicrucian.”
