~ Also trademarked in the U.S. as

The Most Honourable Order of Christian Knights of the Rose, or Knights of the Rose (CKR) - also registered as The Most Honourable Christian Order of the Rose - is the first ecclesiastical order of chivalry established in the third millenium of the Christian Era. It was formed in the year of our Lord, 15 January 2001, and received a Charter of Authority from Bishop Peter Compton-Caputo July 4, 2001. We also received a Papal blessing September 2003 from Pope John Paul II, Royal Patronage June 2005, and a blessing from Pope Benedict XVI November 2006. We are an international, inter-denominational Christian order of Chivalry with the Holy Bible being our Rule and Guide.
Our mission is first and formost to serve our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, by serving our communities and those in need. The group site (knightsoftherose@yahoogroups.com) was established as a public forum for members of the Order, those interested in learning more about the Order, and for discourse on the subjects of chivalry and knighthood in general. Persons wishing to join this Group MUST submit a COMPLETE Yahoo profile including name, email address and gender or they will not be approved for membership. Applicants to the Order itself must realize all credentials may be checked for legitimacy, both secular and clerical.
