In the 12th Century the Knights Templar began as a group of Knights guarding Jerusalem. Today, we are a Chivalrous, Christian, Charitable, Military Order whose primary purpose is charitable works and protecting Christians at risk in the Holy Land and around the World.

I was Knighted and Invested in 2009 as a Chevalier in the USA and most European Countries, Sir in the United Kingdom. My full OSMTH/SMOTJ title is Chev. Kurtis Orcutt, GCTJ, which stands for Grand Croix in the Temple of Jerusalem. As of Fall of 2025, I am now Chancellor General of OSMTH.
