Robert De Craon Commandery No. 8

Our Mission

 Robert de Craon Commandery No. 8 serves the St. Thomas community with distinction, faith, and leadership by upholding the Christian ideals of Knights Templar Masonry through charitable service, spiritual example, and principled leadership. Through visible acts of compassion, fellowship, and civic engagement, the Commandery strengthens both the fraternity and the community, demonstrating that true knighthood is devotion to God expressed in service to humanity. 

Our Core Principles

From the Eminent Commander

 The core principles of Robert de Craon Commandery No. 8—Defense of the Christian Faith, Brotherhood, Benevolence, and Discipline—express the enduring ideals of Knights Templar Masonry. Through steadfast faith, fraternal unity, charitable service, and disciplined conduct, the Sir Knights uphold the sacred traditions of Christian knighthood while serving God, the fraternity, and the St. Thomas community with honor and devotion. 

From the Commander's Station

Fraternal Greetings from the East Sir Knights,


As we assemble under the banners of our beloved Commandery, I extend to each of you my heartfelt appreciation for your steadfast dedication to the Christian and Chivalric principles upon which our Order is founded. It is both an honor and a privilege to serve you as Eminent Commander.


Our labors are not merely ceremonial; they are a sacred charge. We are called to exemplify faith, courage, humility, and charity in our daily lives. In a world that often wavers in conviction, let us remain firm in our vows, united in purpose, and resolute in our commitment to one another.


May we continue to strengthen the bonds of brotherhood within our Asylum, support the growth and development of our officers, and inspire future generations of Knights Templar through our conduct and leadership. Let us labor with zeal, serve with compassion, and lead with integrity.


As we move forward in this chivalric year, I encourage each Sir Knight to be present, engaged, and intentional in your service. Together, we will ensure that Robert de Craon Commandery No. 8 remains a beacon of light, faith, and excellence throughout our jurisdiction.


May the Great Architect of the Universe guide our deliberations, bless our endeavors, and keep us ever mindful of our sacred obligations.


Courteously and Fraternally,


Sir Knight Sheldon Smith

Eminent Commander
