The Coat of Arms of the Celtic Lollard Church.

Establishment[]

The See/Patriarchate of the Celtic Lollard Catholic Church was established in 1393 by Pope Clement VI in the Isle of Mannin, it was designed to choose the Patriarch of the Celtic Lollard Catholic Church as sui iuris (autonomous) church of the Catholic Church, in full communion with the Pope in Rome. When it was created it was agreed that although the first Patriarch wouldn't be elected, as he was appointed by the Pope, every Patriarch after him was to be elected. In the subsequent Patriarchal Elections there were initially three Archbishop electors; one for Ireland, one for the Kingdom of Iceland, one for the Kingdom of Scotland. A few years later one was added for the Isle of Mannin too, bringing the total number of the electors to four. On the aftermath of the Welsh War of Independence, in 1404, and its successful incorporation into the Celtic Confederacy, another elector was added for the Principality of Wales, later Kingdom, bringing the total number of the Archbishop electors to five. Later on, on the aftermath of the Cornish rebellion of 1497 and its successful incorporation into the Celtic Confederacy, an additional one was added for the Principality of Cornwall, bringing the total number of the Archbishop electors to six.

Main Psalm[]

Pray a little prayer with me

It will make you feel secure and free


Pray for a better tomorrow 

Pray for a sunnier day

Pray to leave the pain and the sorrow

Pray to find a better way


Pray to gain salvation 

Pray for those in starvation 

Pray for the soul of your friends

But never pray for someone to get a gruesome end


God doesn’t notice the evil

The cruel or deceitful

He sees the people that pray

And lets them into heaven to play.

  • Writer: Crown Prince of Iceland Andrés Heinrich Sturlungur (1411)
