A Historic First for the
Priories of The Holy Trinity & The Temple Church
Inaugural Convent & Investiture
October 2–4, 2026 | Port St. Lucie, Florida

Prior Howard Giraldo, Holy Trinity Prior I, invites you to join us for an extraordinary weekend of faith, fellowship, tradition, and celebration as the Priory of The Holy Trinity hosts its Inaugural Convent and Investiture, hosted jointly with the Priory of The Temple Church.

This historic gathering will bring together Knights, Dames, postulants, families, and invited guests from across Florida and beyond. We invite you to mark your calendar now and make plans to be part of this defining moment in the life of our Priory.

This Convent & Investiture will include welcoming eight postulants into our Order, six from the Priory of The Holy Trinity and two from the Priory of The Temple Church! Both Priories will also present awards to deserving Knights and Dames.

A Celebration Years in the Making

Team Florida—comprising our parent Priory, the Priory of The Temple Church, and the Priory of The Holy Trinity—are working together to create a meaningful and memorable experience for everyone in attendance.

We are especially grateful to Prior Thomas Beaton, and the Past Priors from the Priory of The Temple Church, for their leadership, counsel, and steadfast guidance in helping the Priory of The Holy Trinity achieve this milestone.

Welcoming Chev. Jeffrey P. Agnes as our Distinguished Officiant

We are truly honored that Past Grand Prior, His Excellency Chev. Jeffrey P. Agnes, GCTJ, GMTJ, will officiate at our Convent and Investiture.

His participation brings our journey full circle. In October 2019, His Excellency presided over Holy Trinity’s elevation to a Preceptory, helping begin the path that would ultimately lead to our becoming a Priory.

Upon accepting our invitation, he shared:

“Holy Trinity’s first C&I.
What a wonderful, fulfilling, confirming, celebratory event.
And what an honor to be asked to officiate it.
Of course, I will do so!”

His presence will make this already historic occasion even more significant.
