Thanksgiving Mass
Grateful worship for blessings received throughout the Grand year
Thanksgiving Mass gathers Knights and Ladies in joyful liturgy to praise God for protection, growth, and fruitful service across Accra West Grand.
The Grand Chaplain presides or delegates celebrants. Full regalia, hymns of praise, and offerings of gratitude mark these celebrations.
Thanksgiving Masses acknowledge divine protection during travel, successful conventions, fruitful welfare projects, and growth in membership and formation.
Local units may hold parish thanksgiving liturgies after major achievements — reinforcing a culture of gratitude in the Order.
Offerings collected during thanksgiving often support charity, parish needs, and Grand welfare — turning gratitude into practical service.
