ON Saturday, March 2, 2024, I, Priest of Antinous, Jacobus Isidorus Didymus Corvusvadem, had the distinct pleasure of consecrating a new Priest of Antinous, Michaelus Hostilius Marcellus Kanaby.
The ceremony was attended by several of Michael's friends and friends of the Temple of Antinous, Washington, DC. Michael will not be founding a new Temple but will join me in expanding the reach of the present Temple in the District of Columbia.
For several years running, Michael has opened his home to host a celebration commemorating the birthday of Antinous in November. This event has grown in popularity each year. He participates in the monthly international Zoom ceremonies honoring Antinous.
Having observed Michael’s interest in and devotion to Antinous, I felt he would be an excellent candidate for priesthood. When I approached him with this idea, after some reflection, he accepted and began his priestly training which lasted over a year ... culminating in the joyful event of March 2.
I welcome Priest Michael into the Sacerdotium and am looking forward to working alongside him to increase awareness of Antinous within the gay community.
