The Knights of Valor: A New beginning

So it has finally begun- the dream that was put in me when I was 14 is now a reality. The Knights of valor have now a purpose and a goal. I have initiated my first learner into the order, this learner will progress through the ranks to finally achieve knighthood within the order. I am excited to see how his journey will progress in the Months to come.

I will be working part time to support myself, and this learner. Typically the learner would pay a fee for these services and ranks, but all that money just goes back to him, and knowing me, I would probably spend some of my own money to further him.

UPDATE:
It has been 3 days since he was initiated as a learner within the order, he displays a lot of great attitude and service to others, he a willing individual with the heart capacity of an ocean. It is my pleasure to develop this man to a mighty man of God, to mentor him in many ways. His first task as a learner is to serve. Serve his parents, Serve others. This is a basic principle of service "To serve others higher than yourself - To become a servant to all" This is not yet a step of service to God, that is later. This is developing a strong foundation of pure selfless servant heart.
