Visit from Grand Chapter and Most Excellent Companion Charles Robertson from Illinois
It was wonderful to have Most Excellent Companion Robertson out for a visit to our chapter, along with two of our own Grand Chapter officers. And while attendance was light due to many of our members taking part in Bro. Tom Kendall's masonic service, it was a great time of fellowship, and we look forward to meeting again sometime soon.

St. John Baptist's Day
Please register at: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/st-john-baptists-day-tickets-449810263607
While sorting through the archives of Ann Arbor Commandery No. 13, Knights Templar we came across an 1882 copy of our by-laws, and after noting how thick the text seemed, we found that in the back was a special ritual for observing St. John the Baptist Day. The ritual was produced by three of our members, two of which were clergymen, and includes elements standard to English liturgical worship along with prayers unique to the Knights Templar. We do not know how long this ritual was performed or when it fell out of use, but this year we'd like to present it to our fellow Sir Knights, and the public as a whole.
The event will be held on Saturday, June 24, 2023, and will begin at 4pm at the Zal Gaz Grotto with the Ann Arbor-Fraternity Lodge No. 262, F&AM & St. Mary’s Lodge No. 4, F&AM PHA Table Lodge to follow. You can purchase tickets for the table lodge at: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/st-marys-and-aaf-262-third-annual-joint-table-lodge-tickets-618458394707
Dress will be templar uniform with sword or business, with ladies in Sunday best.
