Michael McCusker, who has served as supreme master since 2023, reflects in a recent interview on military service, patriotism and the mission of the Fourth Degree, which was established nearly 125 years ago. “The Knights formed the Patriotic Degree at the turn of the century to show that we are Catholic, but also good citizens,” Supreme Master McCusker explained. “Now, more than ever, it is important to demonstrate that we love our faith, but we also love our country.” Read more: https://ow.ly/vruF50SuT65

1moThat's awesome. Congrats Supreme Master McCusker. True virtue of fortitude. And certainly dignified in service. 4th Degree for a Cherokee is an ethical dilemma that I am praying through. The Seminoles never surrendered their commonwealth land. Very peculiar. Yet one must swear to the Constitution and Declaration's principles if of good moral repute. Not sure that every Administration, however, is able to test sufficiently Catholic to pledge - however - praise God for the KoC which do. Amazed at the millions of hours of public service. Perhaps adding in a "Guard Knight" at each Obligatory mass would increase logged time and or give specificity to a "Task" in conjunction with local Sheriff Deputies - which are Constitutional. But per se Policy are difficult to adapt. God's best. Vivat Jesus. #templar.ai #protectorsofthefree
