The Grand Priory of Great Britain is very proud of Confrere William Hackett BLJ who has received a Medal of Merit from the Grand Master in recognition of his tireless fundraising for the Order's charities.
William added both colour and sound to the Installation Mass at Orléans last weekend by playing his pipes during Communion.
Although William has only recently become a member of the Order he has been actively supporting the charitable work of the Order for some time.
The Grand Master declared that: "we shall embark upon a comprehensive programme of growth of membership. This growth of membership will bear the slogan of ‘Quality Christians’". As the newest member of our Priory William epitomises what the Grand Master meant and we all wish him our heartiest congratulations on this well-deserved award.
