The Gadoman Knights are not knights from tales of old England. We instead are making a tangible difference in our communities based on our motto: Learning, Growth, and Service We are a group for Learning: we each grow through our learning and service. Further, we encourage the continuing education of our members. Personal growth is encouraged through our Basic Courses (BCs). These are listed below. We are a group for Growth our message board is a place where everyone is invited to trade ideas, have in depth discussions, and to be mentored in specific areas. Here everyone learns, from the newest Tyro to the oldest Chapter Knight, and all are invited to discuss what they truly feel; all ideas are listened to courteously at the Gadoman Knights. We discuss such things as philosophy, psychokenisis, conduct, meditaiton, demeanor, morals, health topics, alternative healing, and ethics. This is certainly a place for many to get together, to discuss, debate, learn, teach, and/or just relax. We are a group for Service: Each Gadoman member is expected to do at least 6 service projects each year be that picking up trash in a parking lot, doing good deeds in your own home, or building a house with Habitat for Humanity. Some examples are listed below. We support any good cause, such as saving the rain forests, the Optimist Club, and the Nature Conservancy. The word Gadoman is the Japanese word for Guard or Guardian. We try to not offend any peoples and so use the word Ineffable as a definition for such things as Life Force and Ki/Chi or God/Allah/Mother Nature/etc. If you have more questions on the Gadoman Knights, please visit our contact page and e-mail us. We will be glad to answer any questions. Learning, growth, and service; these are the heart of the Gadoman Knights |

Examples of service projects performed in 2002 by Gadoman members: 1. I chauffeured some sweet lil' ol' feisty ladies to and from (a distant city). It was more joy than service. 2. A couple of other chauffeuring times. 3. I'm letting a healer friend of mine use my treatment table no charge. 4. Helped clean an apartment that a friend was moving out of. 5. Took a Grandma to the hospital so she could be with her daughter. 6.
