Spanish translation:El Shrine (Santuario) de Norteamérica
Explanation:
For complete clarity, it may make sense to leave "Shrine" in English (with the parenthetical translation). This will help to avoid any possible confusion with the Sanctuary Movement, and reinforces the connection between the fraternity and the Shriners Hospitals.
