FRA’ JOHN TIMOTHY DUNLAP ELECTED GRAND MASTER OF ORDER OF MALTA

FRA’ JOHN TIMOTHY DUNLAP ELECTED GRAND MASTER OF ORDER OF MALTA

Congratulations to His Most Eminent Highness, Fra’ John Timothy Dunlap who was elected today as the 80th Prince and Grand Master of the Sovereign Order of Malta!

We first met a year ago last May when I was in New York for the Path to Peace Foundation gala dinner that honored King Abdullah and Queen Rania of Jordan.

Not long afterwards, specifically on June 13, 2022, the Holy Father appointed Dunlap Lieutenant of the Grand Master of the Order. We have corresponded between his visits to Rome and now, as of his election today, it seems he will be spending more time in the Eternal City!

I have been trying to get on the website of the Order of Malta but I think they are updating the page with today’s news as I could not access it. I am sure the Order of Malta worldwide is rejoicing, but especially Canada and the U.S.

In any case, here are some photos (I cannot find the pictures from the Path to Peace dinner!)

I send congratulations but also assurances of prayers on this momentous occasion!
