John Bevilaqua Wrote:Here is another really strange irony which first attracted me to the OSJ about 10-15 years ago:
The official extended title of the organization is:
The Sovereign Military Hospitaller Order of Saint John of Jerusalem, of (The Island of) Rhodes and of (The Island of) Malta,
My name is John and I am now from Rhode Island and I was raised by a father who taught at several military academies. He was the personal Spanish tutor to "Wild Bill" Donovan of the "Georgetown Set" and he had to receive a "Secret" or maybe even "Top Secret" clearance in order to do this. My mother was involved in law enforcement and police intelligence work and she is a devout Roman Catholic and I once worked on a project for the Sovereign Bank of New England. Strange huh?
Thank you for your comments.
John - thank you for revealing those details of your childhood. Did you ever come across any wandering bishops? Peter Levenda has done excellent investigative work on them, also - in part - from personal contact with some of their, ahem, holy men.
