I serve my Nation! Investituring Ceremony Hungary

On 27 September 2025, in keeping with its traditions, the Vitézi Rend held its annual Grand Investiture Ceremony in the Inner-City Franciscan Church — the Order’s most solemn and uplifting event of the year.

Each year, more than a thousand people are moved by this grand and noble celebration, the investiture of the Vitézi Rend. Despite the impressive size of the Inner-City Franciscan Church, even standing room is filled to capacity during the ceremony. Not only the members of the Order but also many interested guests and sympathisers attend in ever-growing numbers year after year.

What draws them there? Perhaps it is that deep sense of commitment and faithful service which can truly be felt in the presence of the knights. And yet, these are times in which loyal and steadfast service has become increasingly difficult. The life of a knight is by no means easy, for the current of the world seeks to engulf every island where people still build their lives upon the sacred trinity of God, Homeland, and Family. It is not easy today to live as a Hungarian and as a Christian.

The ceremony began with the sounding of the call — the trumpet signal — when the celebrating Hungarian crowd stood to greet the Chief Captain and his entourage, followed by the leaders of the historic churches and the Holy Crown. After the procession, the assembled congregation recited together the Hungarian Creed.

Following the seating of the congregation, the solemn Holy Mass commenced, celebrated by the representatives of the historic churches present. During the Mass, the servants of God emphasised the importance of remembrance and the past, highlighting the noble duties awaiting the newly admitted members of the Order from the following day, and bestowed their blessings upon all those gathered.

The Holy Mass was followed by the festive address of vitéz Count János Molnár-Gazsó, Chief Captain of the Order of Vitez.

Honourable Fellow Members!
Dear Guests!
Peace and Blessings!
Praised be Our Lord Jesus Christ!

As Chief Captain of the Vitézi Rend, I extend my respectful greetings to the attending officers of the Bavarian Military Association, and to the Knights of the Hungarian Grand Priory of the Sovereign Order of Saint John of Jerusalem, Knights of Malta.

With brotherly affection, I welcome the representatives of the district commands of the United States of America, the United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, Transylvania, Upper Hungary, Subcarpathia, and Novi Sad.

With comradeship and respect, I greet the Kuruc soldiers of the Esze Tamás Regiment.

I also welcome the generals, senior and junior officers, representatives of the churches, mayors, councillors, esteemed members of the Order, candidates for investiture, cadets, knights, Kuruc soldiers, hussars, and all our dear invited guests.

As Chief Captain of the Vitézi Rend, I extend my distinguished greetings to:

vitéz Rainer Schmitt, Provincial President of the Bavarian Military Association;
Knight Dr Gábor Nagy, Grand Cross Commander, Grand Prior of the Hungarian Grand Priory of the Sovereign Order of Saint John of Jerusalem, Knights of Malta;

Father Ferenc Kovács, Cathedral Chaplain;
and vitéz Father János Németh.

With a grateful heart, I express my thanks to all who are here with us today at the greatest celebration of the Order of Vitez — the investiture ceremony. In today’s world, which has drifted away from God, it is especially important that we stand firm in our faith and bear witness to our Christianity and our undying love of country.

Every year I repeat it — the investiture is not merely a beautiful ceremony, but indeed a reaffirmation of our commitment. Here, in the Franciscan Church of the Inner City — in God’s house, before the Holy Crown of Hungary — we bear witness to the perseverance and resurrection of the Hungarian nation. We must never forget the past, not even for a moment, for it defines our present, and only through the understanding of it can we build the future of Hungary.

Yet it is important to emphasise that we do not live in the past!

Honourable Assembly of the Hungarian Nation!

The greatest Calvary and tragedy of our much-suffering nation began after the First World War. The great powers of that time, against our will, dragged us Hungarians into a bloody war that lasted four years. We Hungarians did not want this war — yet we fought it through with honour.

It is important to know that the First World War was not lost by the Hungarian soldiers. In the unequal and bloody battles, the Hungarian honvéds and hussars demonstrated heroic steadfastness. Our armies held their ground far away in foreign lands, ready to persevere to the very end in faithful fulfilment of their oaths. For such is the Hungarian nature — bound by his word, especially when sworn to the Holy Crown in service of his homeland. Yet the outcome of wars is never decided by those who give the most precious gift of all — their lives — for their country.

As a child, I could not understand how we could have lost a war when our armies still stood firm deep within enemy territory! At that time, I did not yet understand the meaning of betrayal. For Hungary was betrayed — betrayed by those who had never even approached the front, yet often profited from the war. I must point out that the spiritual heirs of those traitors are still among us today — and they continue to betray Hungary day after day.

The long-suffering Hungarian soldiers who returned home from the war were greeted not with flowers, but with contempt, and often with persecution. Those who had been too cowardly to go to the front for their country found sudden courage when it came to attacking the returning and disarmed hero soldiers who had held a mirror to their cowardice. The trials of the physically and spiritually humiliated Hungarian nation were only deepened by the 133-day reign of terror of the communists — a time when it was a crime to believe in God and to live as a Hungarian.

The communists knew no mercy — men were hanged simply because they held steadfastly to their faith and loved their nation with passionate devotion. It became a crime to be Hungarian. Throughout our blood-stained history, we Hungarians have never renounced the country bequeathed to us by our holy King Saint Stephen. That is why the treacherous betrayal of the West came as such a shock to the Hungarian people — a betrayal that we Hungarians describe in one single word: Trianon.

Trianon!
Just one word — yet within it lies all the pain of the Hungarian soul.
For a true Hungarian is one who feels the pain of Trianon!

Hungary and the Hungarian nation were betrayed and torn apart by those whom we had defended for centuries. This is not legend — it is historical fact. The Kingdom of Hungary was the bastion of Europe. Their shameful deed could not have been carried out — or not to such an extent — had it not been for the treacherous helpers living among us with alien hearts. Never before had the Hungarian nation stood so close to the brink of national death.

Millions of tormented and humiliated Hungarians prayed to the Lord and to the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Patroness of Hungary. And God hears those who pray to Him with faith. When all seemed lost, He sent a new leader to the head of the mortally wounded nation. That leader was Miklós Horthy — the founding Chief Captain of our beloved Order, the Order of Vitez.

He arrived in the final hour, when all hope seemed lost. I am convinced that if he had not taken the helm of our nation at that time, Hungary would long since have ceased to exist. The victors who mutilated our homeland themselves believed that Hungarian statehood would vanish within five years. Yet by the grace of God, and through the leadership of the Governor, it did not.

Governor Miklós Horthy was a chivalrous soldier and a statesman — the kind of man even his enemies respected. His life and deeds should still today serve as an example for all.

There is a saying of mine:

"Patriotism begins when an individual places the cause of the nation above his own fate.”

This thought perfectly applies to the life and work of Vitéz Miklós Horthy de Nagybánya. The Governor dedicated his life to the preservation and upliftment of Hungary. Amidst a bled-dry, humiliated and dismembered nation, he kept alive the sacred flame of patriotism.

Hard times forge strong men, and in historic times, historic deeds are required! During the First World War and the ensuing communist reign of terror, many strong men were forged — those who, even in the hell of war and under the Red Terror, defended the homeland heroically.

The Governor placed his trust in these men. His thoughts were followed by action when, following ancient tradition, he established an Order — Hungarian in both body and soul — dedicated always and under all circumstances to the service of the Hungarian nation.

This Order is the Order of Vitez, of which we are today proud members and heirs. It is our duty, as members of the Order, to fulfil the will of our eternal Chief Captain. We are now the guardians and bearers of the sacred flame of patriotism.

The merits of Vitéz Miklós Horthy de Nagybánya cannot be denied. Under his leadership, hundreds of kindergartens, schools, and hospitals were built in a mutilated Hungary. The Hungarian pengő became one of the strongest currencies in the world.

And let us not forget — all this was achieved by the Hungarian people at a time when, according to the victors of the First World War, Hungarian statehood should already have ceased to exist.

The Hungarian diplomacy directed by the Governor accomplished miracles unmatched since: through peaceful means, several successful territorial revisions were achieved. Ancient Hungarian lands, once lost to the Habsburgs and later to the communists, were returned. Despite the struggles and hardships, these decades rightfully belong among the most successful periods of Hungarian history.

This Hungarian miracle was reduced to ashes by the Second World War

This Hungarian miracle was reduced to ashes by the Second World War, which brought horrors far greater than those of the first world conflagration. I have said it time and again — Hungary of that time had no chance whatsoever to remain outside the devastation of yet another world war. Our beloved homeland stood between the two strongest powers of that era — we had no choice.

The Hungarian people and the Hungarian soldier were neither fascists nor national socialists, and they did not fight for foreign ideologies, but for Hungary’s very survival. We Hungarians did not take up arms in support of fascism, but in opposition to communism.

The horrors of the Second World War far surpassed those of the First. Just as before, Hungary did not desire this war, yet fought it to the very end. After the bloody devastation of the war, Hungary once again fell prey to the communists. The bloody executioners of the short-lived Soviet Republic returned — the former Lenin boys — ruthless enemies of every Hungarian who clung to his faith and loved his nation. They persecuted and hanged Hungarians, among them many vitéz. Their only “crime” was their loyal service to the Hungarian nation.

Eighty years have passed since then, yet the situation has changed little. We, the vitéz of today, must still constantly fight for our faith and our undying love of country. We live in a world that rushes ever faster and grows ever more inhuman, where the liberal fascism that serves globalist ambitions poses an ever greater danger.

A few years ago, many could not understand why, in the 21st century, there should still be a Hungarian military order more than one hundred years old. Yet the founding and enduring existence of our Order find their true meaning precisely in these difficult and often ominous times.

For the Order of Vitez continues faithfully to serve the Hungarian nation — and will stand, if need be, in the first line when it must again be defended. And it seems that, although we do not wish for it, that time may indeed come.

The lawful and legally registered Order of Vitez is not a playground for idle noblemen or politicians with nothing better to do. Such entertainment belongs to those groups that abuse our name for their own purposes.

We vitéz perform our duty and remain in the service of our homeland. We are not afraid of service, so long as it may be rendered for the good of our country. For what could be nobler for a vitéz than to serve his nation and homeland?

The duties and opportunities of the Order have changed much over time. We are not people who dwell in the past or wander about in frustration. The Order of Vitez lives in the present and takes an ever greater role in shaping the future — while embracing social responsibilities that are both necessary and deeply valued. These include: the preservation of traditions, disaster relief, charitable service, the care of war graves, and defence-oriented sports training.

Yet the most important task of our Order remains the guardianship of the sacred flame of patriotism, and the planting of that flame in the hearts of our children. For the teaching of love for one’s homeland can never begin too early.

The whole world is in turmoil, and we live in times where nothing is as it seems. Ideologies shift, while human values decline. Before our very eyes, the forces of good and evil wage a life-and-death struggle — a struggle that transcends borders and divides nations. We need not look far for enemies, for in every European country, including our own, there are those who conspire against their own homeland.

To be a vitéz is not an act of politics, but a stand for Christian and conservative values.

In the modern liberal world, everything that represents genuine value is deemed wrong and persecuted, while confused and often anti-human ideologies are held up as models to follow. These unnatural ideologies have infected many — and it is they who repeatedly turn against their own homeland. Believe me, nothing has changed: the enemies of the homeland are still led by the same forces — the communists and the liberals.

We vitéz know exactly who they are. Our forefathers faced their forefathers. It seems this struggle spans generations. Those who once crawled before the Habsburgs still do so today. Those who once served the socialist community in Moscow now serve Brussels as liberals. It is as though they recoil from all that is truly Hungarian, and, following the example of their ancestors, still labour to hand Hungary into foreign hands.

Yet just as they do not change, neither do we — and with all our strength, we remain devoted to the defence of our homeland.

Thanks be to God, love of country too is passed from generation to generation. We vitéz draw strength from the knowledge that the vast majority of the Hungarian people reject the globalist and liberal ambitions, as well as the resurgent communist ideologies.

The times ahead will require men and women like us — Hungarians who guard the ancient and true values, while protecting and supporting the weak and the needy. Hungary has for years been under severe attack. The foundation of our national survival — the smallest yet most vital unit of our society, the Hungarian family — is being attacked, from afar and from within.

Yet just as we did not become Turks after 150 years of occupation, nor Austrians in the centuries that followed, nor international communist proletarians thereafter — so now we shall not become globalist liberals.

Honourable Candidates!

Today, you are being admitted into the ranks of the lawful and legitimate Order of Vitéz.
Let me forewarn you — the path of the vitéz is never an easy one! We are often attacked from the left — and at times, even from the right. Why? Because we think not in terms of parties, but of nation.

Be strong in body and in spirit, for you stand on the side of good. Stand firm as rock, for the enemy may even now be howling outside these very walls! Fear not — trust in God’s infinite grace and power, for He will aid His own.

Never forget: a title or a rank is worth nothing if it is not filled with substance. To be a vitéz is both an honour and a solemn duty of service.

Here today, in the House of God and before the Holy Crown, you make a profession of faith and take an oath. Never forget your oath! Under no circumstances, no threat, no difficulty, must you ever stray from the path marked out for us by our ancestors.

Stand ready, for difficult times may come when we must again rush to the defence of our homeland. I expect you to be loyal and courageous members of the Order of Vitez.

I am one among you — and if need be, I shall always be one step ahead of you in the service of our homeland. And I expect you to follow me.

Dear Cadets,

You are our every hope. You give meaning to the struggle we fight today for the survival of the Hungarian nation. You will one day be those knights (vitézek) who, when our hands have grown weary and perhaps begin to tremble, will take from us and hold high the Hungarian flag — proclaiming to the world that the Hungarian nation still lives!

Embrace in your hearts the wonderful feeling of patriotism, and as we do now, so shall you one day pass it on to your own children. I welcome you warmly into the ranks of the Order of Vitez.

Honourable Gathering of the Hungarian Nation,

With these thoughts, I thank you for your kind and respectful attention.

God bless the Hungarian nation!
God bless the Order of Vitéz!
Thank you for listening to me.

Following the speech of the Chief Captain,

as a symbol of the 25-year friendship between the Bavarian Military Association and the Order of Vitéz, the two organisations exchanged commemorative flag ribbons.

The ribbon of the Order of Vitéz was ceremonially tied to the flag of the Bavarian Military Association by Vitéz Countess Regina Molnár-Gazsó, while the ribbon of the Bavarian Military Association was tied to the flag of the Order of Vitéz by Vitéz Baroness Ivett Hanna Lázi Gilányi.
