The 2021 Service of Investiture of The Grand Priory of England and Wales was held on Saturday 16th October 2021 at the beautiful St Paul’s Church, Knightsbridge, London. At 11.00am prompt, the procession entered the Church to the rousing hymn 'All people that on earth do dwell'.
The Investing Officer was The Grand Prior of England and Wales, The Most Honourable the Marquis of Lothian PC, GCLJ, QC, DL assisted by The Bailiff, His Excellency the Chevalier Charles Holloway GCLJ, KMLJ. It was so good to have our Grand Prior in attendance.
It was a pleasure to see so many postulants being invested. Well deserved promotions and awards were presented and new Commanders and Chancellors appointed.
The Investiture was followed by a wonderful banquet at the Cavalry and Guards Club.
A splendid occasion where members and friends of the Order of Lazarus could finally come together to worship and celebrate, and a truly memorable day for the Grand Priory of England and Wales.
