PRE-REGISTRATION:  To pre-register as a Candidate for this Initiation, please contact the Lodge Secretary at atlantislodge.usa@gmail.com.  Be sure to include (1) your full name, (2) your AMORC Key number, (3) a statement of the Temple Degree you are seeking, (4) your preferred telephone number, and (5) your preferred email address.  We will respond with further details.

Please be aware that we cannot accept unregistered walk-ins on the day that the Degree is to be conferred.

WITNESSES: Members of the Order who have already received the FIRST Temple Degree in an AMORC Lodge are encouraged to attend the Initiation as Witnesses. Remember to bring your Active Grand Lodge Membership and your Initiation credentials.  Also, because our supply of loaner aprons is limited, we request that you bring your own Rosicrucian apron if you have one.

* Active AMORC members who have completed their Atrium Degree studies and received their preliminary First Temple Degree Monographs are invited to participate. 

Lodge Location:  4839 Meade St. NE, Washington, DC  20019.  We are in the quiet Northeast DC neighborhood of Deanwood, four blocks from the Deanwood Station (Orange Line) of the DC Metropolitan Rail System.
