I have the pleasure of announcing two promotions. The first promotion is for Marc Blaydoe who serves the Order in two capacities; the first being our Grand Turco, which is an Grand officer position. His second capacity has been serving as Priory leader at the rank of Master Commander for the Priory of the Holy Trinity for one year. He has been a dedicated leader of that Priory and has now met all the qualifications to hereby be promoted to the rank of Prior.

He has been a dedicated leader of that Priory and has now met all the qualifications to hereby be promoted to the rank of Prior. GT Marc will still be referred to as Grand Turco (GT), as his officer title takes precedence over his rank.
The second promotion is for our Grand Secretary, Renee' Nordio. GSY stepped in a year ago as an interim Priory leader for the Priory of St. Michael the Archangel. She served at the rank of Master Commander for one year, having now met all the qualifications to hereby be promoted to the rank of Prior. Since the appointment of Sir Mike Glenn to the rank of Master Commander who will now be leading the Priory of St. Michael the Archangel, GSY Renee' will now lead her home Priory, King David. GSY Renee' will still be referred to as Grand Secretary (GSY), as her Grand officer title takes precedence over her rank.
Please join me in congratulating both GT Marc and GSY Renee' on their well-deserved promotions.
