The Installation meeting of the Holy Trinity Tabernacle No. 212 was held on Tuesday the 4th of May 2023 at the Croydon Masonic Centre. The Tabernacle was honoured by the presence of Ill.Kt.Pt. Steve Jones, CHW, PGIV P, and many visitors.
The Tabernacle was opened by the High Priest, V.Em.Kt.Pt. Graham Elms, who welcomed all Knight Priests to the Tabernacle, and especially our visitors who assisted with occupying the spare offices. The main item on the agenda was to install Em.Kt.Pt. Chris Eley as High Priest. This was done in a most sincere manner by V.Em.Kt.Pt. Graham Elms.
The High Priest then appointed his Officers and invested those present.
The High Priest thanked Steve Jones and all the visitors for supporting both him and the Tabernacle, and they in turn wished V.Em.Kt.Pt. Chris an enjoyable year. Congratulations to R.Em.Kt.Pt. Jack Love, awarded G.C.P.O.; V.Ill.Kt.Pt. Patrick Crossan, awarded K.H.W.; Ill.Kt.Pt. Peter Dack, promoted to PGV1 P; as well as two of our visitors; Ill.Kt.Pt. Graham Hancock promoted to PGV P; and Ill.Kt.Pt. Ron Brick appointed GIII P.
There being nothing further for the good of the Order, or this Tabernacle, the Tabernacle was closed with solemn prayer, and the members of Holy Trinity Tabernacle and their guests sat down to a most enjoyable meal together at the Croydon Masonic Hall.
