Roseau, 5 November 2014. Marking the first Official Visit of the Sacred Military Constantinian Order to Dominica, a Presidential Investiture Ceremony took place at State House in the presence of leading state, diplomatic and ecclesiastical figures.
HE President Savarin awarded the country’s highest honour, the Dominica Award of Honour to HRH The Duke of Castro and the country’s second highest honour, the Sisserou Award of Honour to HE Anthony Bailey, OBE. These two awards were presented by virtue of the institutional role held within the Order and in recognition of the charitable engagement undertaken in Dominica by the Constantinian Order in the areas of national and religious patrimony and community outreach.
To mark the Official Visit, the Grand Master invested the Dominican Head of State with the insignia of a Knight Grand Cross with Gold Star within the Special Category and the Dominican Head of Government with the Knight Grand Cross of Merit of the Sacred Military Constantinian Order of St. George.
Both institutional awards were presented in recognition of the nation’s contribution to the Christian identity and inter-religious harmony. The awards were bestowed by virtue of the office held within the institutions of the Commonwealth of Dominica.
The Ceremony was followed by an Official Luncheon hosted by HE the President of the Commonwealth of Dominica in honour of the Constantinian Order’ delegation.
