<li>Pilgrim Class &mdash; Requires the petitioner to have made a religious pilgrimage to the Holy Lands. Evidence of such a pilgrimage is reviewed by the [[Dean of the SDLKJ]], or if that office is vacant by the SDLKJ Administrator[[President]]. Each will use his judgment on whether they evidence is sufficient.</li>

<li>The qualifications proven, the SDLKJ Administrator Headquarters Staff will create a letter of welcome and a certificate of membership, these may be signed by the Dean of the SDLKJ either physically or electronically at his discretion.

No fees need attach for lineages or portions of lineages already recognized by The Augustan Society, or for historical figures, generations documented in [https://wikipedia.com Wikipedia], and a credit will be issued for any such duplication.
