Newsletter
Dear members and friends of St. Stanislas,
At long last we have started to move forward with regular functions and investitures in the
United Kingdom. Although in recent years we have lost a lot of members, mainly through age
and address changes, we are starting to build our numbers to a more viable and active list. I
am most grateful to the following members who have joined me in forming a small Priory
Council and with their help on organization and as Directors of the St. Stanislas Trust
matters can only get better.
HE Chevalier Norman Offield, GCStS, Grand Almoner
Chevalier Barry Theobald Hicks, SBStJ, GCStS, SMStS, Herald, Grand Priory
Chevalier Leslie Grout.
We hope to issue future Newsletters every 12 months to keep members informed of
forthcoming events and to include reports from other Priories and articles of interest.
Confraternal,
HE Dame Mervyn Redding, CStJ, DCStS, GMStS
Grand Prior of Great Britain
