The Order of Jamyl has published our initiation rites on our galnet site.
We have reproduced them here for the faithful to read.

Blessings, initiate. This is the Rite of Initiation for the Order of Jamyl. It is a time of prayer of devotion, of meditation and worship. There will be several steps and places to go as you travel along the steps of Empress Jamyl I. May it strengthen your faith in God and devotion to Our Lady.
The introductory blessings and services will be conducted by one of the Order’s clergy. After that, initiates are left to their own devices and time to walk the path of Her Majesty. Baseliners should contact one of the Order’s capsuleers to conduct this rite. In addition to the private prayers and meditations, initiates are expected to broadcast a prayer of their own wording and choosing into the local channel to spread the faith. These prayers will be kept in the Order’s records. Capsuleers are able to participate in the special Rite of Jamyl’s Submission. They should be in a clone with no implants.


Blessing and introduction from the Holy Mother at Sarum Prime VI-7 Sarum Family Assembly Plant, Cathedral of the Resurrection


The initiate will remain at the Cathedral for meditation on the life of the Empress. What does it mean to grow up as a True Amarr noble? How does one respond to becoming an heir? Imagine the pressures on her and how God helped her in her life. Let your prayers and meditations guide your thoughts.


Travel to the Mekhios Graveyard. Contemplate the Mystery of her Resurrection. How did she respond to her being resurrected? How would you? What did she think on her way back to Mekhios to save the Empire? Remain at sublight until you feel that it is time to warp to the Graveyard.


Mekhios Graveyard. Bask in the Majesty and Glory of the Empress. Remember her triumph! Now is a time of praise and thanks to God for His Grace and Her Majesty.

"The Lord loosed upon them his fierce anger
All of his fury and rage.
He dispatched against them a band of Avenging Angels" - The Scriptures, Book II, Apocalypse 10:1


Orbit of Amarr Prime. Praise and Glory to God and Empress Jamyl I! Remember her coronation, with the Domain Fleet. Remember her rule of righteousness. To be an Empress is almost unimaginable, to be closest to God.

"The angelic Apostles of Heaven sing praises for their children!
Our Lord smiles upon the world.
Where the Emperor rules in his name
Leading his people to glory untold.
Hearken the trumpets of Heaven
Hailing the people of Amarr."
- The Scriptures, Prophet Anoyia 17:21


For those of us fortunate to be living now, to have seen the Empress in EF Seraph, we may offer prayers of gratitude that we were granted such a blessing.


Travel to Safizon. She had taken this route so many times before. Did she know this was going to be her last time? We believe that the Empress knew her time was coming to an end, but did she know it was going to be now? Pray to God for guidance and the strength to always do His will.

"For whosoever shall lay his life down for his Lord
He shall be taken into the arms of God
And forever consecrated will he be
But whosoever shall turn from the light
And run in fear
The Lord shall abandon him
And forever forsaken will he be"
- The Scriptures, Amarr Askura 2:3


Orbit around the wreck of EF Seraph. Pray for the Empress’s soul. Pray to her in Paradise that she might guide you. We follow in the footsteps of saints, so that we can live righteously. She is our example.


Safizon II-1 Amarr Navy Assembly Plant, Ascension Cathedral. Preparation for the Rite of Jamyl’s Submission. Blessings from the Holy Mother, prayers to God for spiritual purity.

The Rite of Jamyl’s Submission


Rite of Induction and Consecration:

The initiate will be met at the cloning station in Safizon by the members of the order. They will be garmented with a robe of the order and taken to Ascension Cathedral. The initiate shall receive prayers and invocations by the Holy Mother and all other members of the order before being bathed in Sacred Waters from Mekhios. Following that, they shall receive their Jamyl medallion and be entered into the Order’s membership. The first initiates, having been given their Jamyl Medallion before, will have it returned to them blessed.
