  • Sacraments,

  • Prayer

The Chivalric Heart Of The Order

We embrace the chivalric spirit of Christian discipleship — a living tradition that forms disciples who are strong, humble, and deeply rooted in Christ.

Our Faith lived with courage, compassion, and dignity

We are called to emulate the ancient Christian knights not in battle, but in spirit:

Courage

Standing for what is right even when costly

Honor

Living with integrity in an age of compromise

Compassion

Caring for the poor and vulnerable

Discipline

Cultivating virtue and avoiding moral drift

Service

Putting the needs of others above ourselves
