Despite its long history and in the midst of adverse conditions, the Poor
Fellow-Soldiers of Christ and of the Temple of Solomon and the Hospitallers of
St. John, has survived through the centuries and today still exists and upholds
the same timeless values.
Perhaps the tales of grails and secrets that have disappeared into the
fabric of time and protected by noble Knights, are popular because these are
the very attributes that we need more than ever in our modern age.
Especially these days where Peace is disturbed, we can find inspiration and
guidance in the past.
The concept of giving one’s oath, swearing to adhere to a vow given,
regardless of the efforts involved, is a direct result of the strength of
purpose of the Knights.
The Great Priory of Greece had the honor to host the 12th International Synod in the medieval island of Rhodes and the great success of the event, fill us with greater ambitions and expectations.
I wish you all, health, peace and happiness.
