Every day, there are countless organizations across the country providing all manner of services to those in need. Many, many Confrères in the U.S. Priory support these organizations through financial contributions, volunteerism, or service on boards of directors.

This is the Priory’s National Day of Service. In its second year, more than 200 Members in cities from coast to coast turned out to put the mission of the Order into action.
