THE Grand Knight of Council 71 of the Knights of Marshall, Brother Mark Anthony Taylor, has urged members of the Dansoman branch to remain united and commit themselves to the tenets of the Noble Order.
In his acceptance speech after he had been installed the eighth Grand Knight of the council at the weekend, Brother Taylor pledged to strengthen the unity among brothers, create an atmosphere that would enhance and enrich their spiritual growth, as well as support and give a helping hand to distressed members and charitable organisations.
The installation ceremony attracted the Immediate Past Supreme Knight of the Knights of Marshall, Sir Knight Professor Dr Dr Sir George Wireko Brobbey, as the installation officer, Worthy Brothers Derx Baffour, the installation secretary, and J. W. K. Botwe, the installation guard, and Sir Knight Mr Justice S. A. Brobbey, a Supreme Court judge, with the Ghana Immigration Service Band dishing out music at the installation banquet.
Brother Taylor urged other members to reach out to those brothers who were tinkering on the edges of the council’s activities, stressing, “Let us help them to rekindle their spirit and renew their commitment so that they can join us to implement the myriad of activities selected to bring us closer together in unity.”
He announced the setting up of a Distressed Fund, to which he pledged GH¢1,000, to support brothers in need.
He also donated a new Grand Knight’s chair to the council and pledged to continue with the work of his predecessors to ensure a new horizon of accomplishments and successes for the council.
