The Commandery of The Knights of the Way of Christ

Our order remains small yet welcoming to new members. Discover the details of our Commandary below. We invite you to seek divine guidance on whether our brotherhood aligns with God's plan for your journey. The Contact Page contains four essential questions that will illuminate your rightful position among us. All begin as Squires, undergoing examination of Biblical knowledge and spiritual conviction while learning our traditions and service obligations. This apprenticeship leads to Esquire status—the final preparation before Knighthood. Upon investiture, men become Sir [First name] and women Dame [First name], addressed accordingly in all formal communications.

Please note: We are not a part of the Templar Knights or the Free Masons.

As of 12/2025 we have 14 Knights and 2 Dames
