Personalizing your templar armor kit can be a lot of fun. At the least it will serve as a stoic conversation piece racked up in your house. In sight and in mind can be very useful and encouraging. This doesn't and shouldnt merely be an abstract figment of your imagination. It would behoove you to make this Templar experience an active part of your life.

This doesn't and shouldnt merely be an abstract figment of your imagination. It would behoove you to make this Templar experience an active part of your life. We all have different tastes in our regalia, naturally. But as a matter of unit cohesion and solidarity I want to recommend an armor component, firstly. I understand this stuff isn't cheap but if you're looking to invest in your setup I want to recommend something like this or a variation of as a token of unity amongst us brethren and sistren. Please take it upon yourself to get your hands on something like this...it can be worn by itself or atop a curaiss.

There are a few events coming up within the next 8 weeks or so that I would like to march to in full Templar armor again. Goal being to simply be a Christian presence. While maintaining my silence and not engaging in any conversation at length, there is no opportunity for anyone to align me politically left or right. Just to be a symbol of Christ's kingdom is more than enough of a reason to go boldly. Also, maintaining anonymity is critical. If a bystander can personalize my presence then it tak... moreThere are a few events coming up within the next 8 weeks or so that I would like to march to in full Templar armor again. Goal being to simply be a Christian presence. While maintaining my silence and not engaging in any conversation at length, there is no opportunity for anyone to align me politically left or right. Just to be a symbol of Christ's kingdom is more than enough of a reason to go boldly. Also, maintaining anonymity is critical. If a bystander can personalize my presence then it takes away from the aspect of being a symbol for the cause of Christ. Non nobis, Domine, non nobis, sed nomini tuo da gloriam When it comes to sharing the path with people pushing strollers, children passing by, elderly or other citizens, I make it obvious that I am stepping aside, standing at attention and staring straight ahead as they pass. Being respectful, cordial, and chivalric is the message. People see it and love it. I will go alone again if I have to but if anyone else would be interested to join me it wouldn't be in vain. So far I've done Oswego NY. They gather in masses in front of city hall with their signs and along the bridges every Saturday. This week and over the weekend there is an event in the next city over, Fulton NY. People are already taking to the streets and the bridges will be robust with gatherers. Now is the time Templar brothers and sisters. Divine apathy serves no one. I will be checking my messages routinely in hopes I see volunteers to join in this day and age. As always I offer my full compliance to the chain of command within this order. My first intention is to not brandish any OMSDT regalia as to not direct any unwanted attention to the order. But if otherwise specified there could be a viable means of recruitment involved. Godspeed.
