On the 21st of October 2024, the Order of St George the Martyr gathered for a memorable evening at The Varsity in Cambridge, where members enjoyed an elegant dinner and lively discussions. The event provided a wonderful opportunity for members to connect and share in the anticipation of the upcoming journey to Rome, a significant highlight for the Order.
Members discussed the packed itinerary, which includes a private audience with His Holiness the Pope at the Vatican, a visit to the historic grave of St George, and stops at prominent landmarks such as the British Embassy in Rome, the Italian Parliament's Senate of the Republic House, Father Eugene's seminary, and the iconic Colosseum.
The evening also highlighted the Order's continued growth and initiatives. Members discussed the recently launched website and an exciting new idea to host online auctions serving charitable purposes, providing additional avenues for members to support the Order's mission.
The dinner was not only a chance to review exciting plans but also a warm reminder of the fellowship that bonds the members of the Order of St George the Martyr.
Our Grand Prior added, "It was a very pleasant evening with fine food and delicious wine in a lovely setting overlooking Cambridge. The camaraderie and conversation flowed like wine, and everyone had an enjoyable social evening."
