On 21st December 2021, members from the district of Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire joined others from across the country to celebrate the conferment of Higher Degrees including our MWS, James Davis who received the 30°, Grand Elected Knight Kadosh, Knight of the Black and White Eagle. James was also lucky enough to be chosen as the representative candidate.

At the same meeting, the District Recorder received his 31°, Grand Inspector Inquisitor Commander.

The Inspector General for Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire, Very Illustrations Brother Nick Edwards 33° and his predecessor was also in attendance.

These Higher Degrees are full length ceremonies worked only by members of the Supreme Council. They are awarded on merit alone. This includes the completion of the required ritual, length of service and outstanding service to the Order in general.
