Beloved Brothers, Sisters, and Esteemed Members,
Greetings in peace and goodwill.
It is with deep humility and heartfelt joy that we share a moment of encouragement and honor with you all. The Augustan Society, a distinguished and time-honored institution devoted to heraldic and noble studies, has formally recognized two of our sacred chivalric orders:
The Ecclesiastical Order of the Eteku
and The Order of Saint Moses the Black.
This recognition is especially meaningful, as it follows the Society’s previous acknowledgment of the Bunyoro-Kitara Kingdom as a legitimate Fons Honorum—a true source of honor and nobility.
Such affirmations are not pursued for prestige, but rather accepted in gratitude as affirmations of our work, our vision, and our calling to uphold dignity, virtue, and service through our orders.
We extend our deepest thanks to the Augustan Society for their consideration, and to all of you—our faithful members and supporters—whose steadfast commitment continues to breathe life into our mission.
May we press forward with renewed strength, guided by truth, justice, and the light of our sacred traditions.
In faith and service,
Cherubim Abu-Seifein Akiiki
Abuna, Catholicos, and Patriarch
Holy Synod of the Patriarchate of Bunyoro-Kitara Kingdom
