His Ministerial Office Chronology

(Note: While initially being baptized Roman Catholic as an infant in 1978, the family reverted to Evangelical and Protestant churches in the 1980’s. However his educational upbringing remained primarily in Lutheran schools.)

У рік нашого Господа, 1990 рік, у віці 12 років + Стівен вперше потрапив під опіка of +Bishop Pastor Leroy Crouch of Restoration Ministries. Crouch being of Celtic Davidic background, kept the Culdee Scottish documents posted in the Sanctuary for all to read.  The community kept a portion of the Celtic liturgy. He was a primary teacher of the Melchizedek Order, in several theology series. The Pastor was a Spiritual father to Stephen, who could visit his offices any time, as his own school campus (where Stephen’s Parents were the landlord and school officials). Crouch was a speaker at numerous Ministries that included America’s Promise conferences. He made several advanced theology series that were recorded at such conferences and at Restoration Ministries.

In the year of our Lord, 1999, Pastor Crouch nominated +Stephen to the office of Associate Pastor. Confirmation to office did not happen till 2000. +Stephen was highlighted in the Obituary as an honored student of Crouch, and gave part of his eulogy at the funeral.

У рік нашого Господа, 2000 рік, after 8 years active as a layman in the Culdees’ church at Orange(Restoration Ministries), and three years of a concentrated study +Stephen was officially anointed and ordained as a Священик і Євангеліст + єпископ Леслі Бойл, помічник пастора покійного єпископа Пастора Крауча.

У рік нашого Господа, 2003 рік, + Стівен став Капелан for several local community organizations including for the Imperial Order of Knights, performing weddings, baptisms, communion, and other church services.

У рік нашого Господа, 2003 рік, Він був створений Менеджер з коріння кельтів Bookshop(used at Scottish / Celtic Clan festivals), owned by Dr. Warren Johnson. From 2002 +Stephen was recognized as a Науковець доктором Джонсоном та іншими членами правління Американського богословського інституту, які опублікували свої праці з екзегетичного богослов'я в передовій програмі семінарії Західного відділу.

У рік нашого Господа, 2004 рік, +Stephen begun occupations of the estates and domains in Europe that were inherited by law as belonging to George d’Guelph Brunswick Nott, in succession of our Great Uncle Ulric d’Este Guelph Brunswick, who fought against the illegal occupations of Hanover and Prussia. All in accordance with numerous treaties and house laws on the method of transmitting the inheritance and taking possession.

У рік нашого Господа, 2004 рік, +Stephen became Evangelist to Europe і representative Bishop for the European branch of the Christ’s Assembly Worldwide, attending the annual synod (council of bishops).

In the year of our Lord, 2005, +Stephen established the “Good News of the Kingdom” Radio show as co-host with Pastor Boyle. This continued till 2014 with 450 sermons. Regular broadcasts are continued under “the Brunswickers” youtube channel till this day.

In the year of our Lord, 2006, +Stephen began a cooperation of Culdee institutes under His Eminence Abbot Dr David Michael Smith, Abbot General of the Culdee Order, Grand Master of the Templar Order of the Gate.

У рік нашого Господа, 2007, +Stephen was issued a provisional charter by the Abbot General of the Culdee Order to form a Culdean Mission (and Abbey) at the South of the Netherlands. This was more of a recognition, co-participating in events. For a time he served as Abbot of Barendrecht Abbey, Zuid Holland. His Abbey and wider Celtic Church ministry (ongoing since 2000) delivered priestly services to the remnant and other outcasts of true Israel in dispersion, in pockets of Europe and the UK. Several newsletters highlighted his “2010 Pilgrimage Crusade” to “Reclaim the Ecclesiastical Rights of Glastonbury”, and leading festival services for various congregations. The primacy in the Culdees in Europe had been won back from various pagan imposters. Membership in this Celtic communion grew from various countries, including Germany, South Africa, Ukraine, Italy, France, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, Belgium, Luxemburg, and England.

У рік нашого Господа, 2009 рік, + Єпископ Уеслі Перкінс і + єпископ Леслі Бойл висвятили + єпископа Стівена на Єпископ у Нідерландах(overseeing multiple congregations), and jointly signed a довідковий лист для його остаточного обрання Архієпископом для юрисдикції БЕНЕЛЮКС в Раді єпископів Христової Асамблеї. Свідоцтво про висвячення також було отримано.

In the year of our Lord, 2009, The Heraldic Community of Westphalia registered the Nott Coat of Arms with Bishops’ Consecration award, adorning the 14th Century Dynastic house arms.

У рік нашого Господа, 2010 рік, + Став Стівен Майкл Лорд пріор з Гластонбері, leading locals in the liturgy. He is heir to the last Royally approved wardens of Glastonbury. After the long dedicated ministry service, this rank was confirmed by Culdean (including Anglican, Scottish and Irish church) Clerics, Laymen, Patriots and Musicians at Glastonbury. This was the year the Catholic church stopped doing processions at Glastonbury. To fill in, right on time, +Stephen led a banner procession at the Tor. Prayers of consecration into office were administered. A film crew from Galatia films kept a record for a possible future documentary. Installment of the church banner at the Tor was photographed and published in several newsletters. A meeting of about 30 persons applauded at this event. The headlines read: “reclaiming Glastonbury”. These meetings were also photographed and published.

In the year of our Lord, 2011, together with blessings of the successors of Restoration Ministries, the Пріорат Салема was consecrated (for our Royal Priesthood under Christ the King of kings). The ceremony was officiated by Rev Stephen Michael K.B. at Samuel’s Great High Place at Gibeon (Jerusalem Israel) where Moses’ tabernacle rested. The consecration was during the High Holy day of the Feast of Passover after the Holy Communion. The service was held live by teleconference at a farm which is near the top of the highest mountain (at Gibeon) overlooking Jerusalem.

У рік нашого Господа, 2013 рік, Берлінський архієпископ, канцлер Американської православної католицької церкви та інші єпископи визнали статус Кульдської церкви, наше старшинство, кельтський пріоритет серед західних церков і повну автономію. Вони також дали нам дозвіл служити їхнім церквам. Це був чиновник лист визнання та причастя між OCC та AOCC, з a посилання нашої доброї співпраці у служінні більше п'яти років.

У рік нашого Господа, 2015 рік, +Stephen was consecrated as Primace (Lead Bishop/Archbishop) and anointed with stamped recognitions by three Archbishops, recognized in writing and in the anointing ceremony as head of multiple jurisdictional titles of Nobility within the church and within the Dukedom Wolfenbuttel-Brunswick (as a German elder Dukedom, several member principalities remain resident subordinate). Multiple Knights were also invested at the event. The Archbishop of Berlin, +Peter Becker OSB (primary consecrating Bishop) and the Archbishop +Blake Allan Hammacher OSB (assisting Bishop), did canonically consecrate +Stephen as Архієпископ Архієпархії AOCC Нідерландів та низовин (Бенілюкс) with the contractual conditions of full autonomy of the Orthodox Culdean Church. Both Bishops being Order of Saint Benedict.

Co-Consecrators:

The assisting Archbishop +Ambrose von Sievers, Catacomb Church of True Orthodox Christians, provided a certificate of reintegration with the Orthodox Church, and formally recognized +Archbishop(or Primace) Stephen Michael d’Guelph Prince of Brunswick, of the Culdee’s church, і (титуляр) Архієпископ Гластонбері.

The day of the consecration was a day of ecclesiastical revolution in the Netherlands. Interested parties may inquire on the successful activities published in the Newspaper that day.

Раз на півроку +Stephen continues since 2010 meeting and maintaining services with the Glastonbury Clerics and others involved in ministry to the local people (and pilgrims). Some work full time in ministry, some in music, some in performing the Divine liturgies, and others in writing and distributing literature part time.

У рік нашого Господа, 2017 рік, +Stephen was awarded with a Doctorate of Divinity. As with tradition of ordinations, the Professor Becker from the same Lutheran Institute of St Peter and St Paul, referred him along with the references to the school’s headmaster. So +Stephen may use in His style as Doctor (one of three). (Although titles aren’t his wish, simply “brother” or fellow minister are enough, some may address him as Rev Doctor or the Primace within the OCC communion.)

У рік нашого Господа, 2017 рік, +Stephen completed his Doctoral Thesis on the Celtic Church, and submitted it to the Lutheran Institute St Peter and St Paul, and was awarded the Degree of Doctor of Theology (or ThD).

The completion of these additional legalities came through the coursework of the earned Certificates in International Law and International Arbitration from two major accredited Universities in the EU.

Herein are several of the priestly lines that are recognized in Orthodox circles of Christendom (East and West). These lines connect in direct succession down from the Holy Apostles, in a consecration ceremony of anointing and the laying on of hands. http://celticorthodoxy.com/2020/04/lines-of-apostolic-succession-of-prince-archbishop-dr-stephen-m-dguelph-brunswick-primace-occ/

Як єпископ, який відвідує іноземну юрисдикцію, прийнято проводити повторне освячення, щоб підтвердити дійсність таїнств у цих зборах.

Хоча деякі вважають, що ці освячення не є необхідними, кілька університетів у всьому світі розглядають їх як вимогу до кожного, хто діє на священичому служінні. Англійська церква та багато інших церков, які не перебувають у структурі Риму, вирішили зберегти єпископську спадкоємність. Це охоплює всі міжнародні визнання, оскільки там сказано, що англійська церква «зберегла свою єпископство, але не як від папи Григорія, який послав сюди ченця Августина, а від Йосифа з Аріматеї». Це разом із більш широким відновленням і визнанням у Східній православній церкві (Істинна православна церква, яка уникнула більшовицьких різанин, живучи в катакомбах, також Катакомбній церкві. Субота в суботу.)

[Спеціальна примітка про суботу:Дідаскалія апостолів вважалася канонічною в більшості православного світу, і в ній субота - це субота, і вона називається днем відпочинку та поклоніння. В «Стоглаві», офіційному рукописі Російської православної церкви, датованому 1556 роком, і що містить матеріали Московського собору за правління Івана IV (1531-1584), є розділ про суботу:
“By the Authority of Peter and Paul, we command to the people to work during the week. But on Subota (Sabbath) and on Nedelja (Sunday) let them worship in the Church and pray, and let them learn something for the sake of good faith. The Subota is the image of the whole creation, while the Nedelja is the day of the resurrection.” Read more in the book published by His Eminence ++Rev Dr Stephen M.K. Brunswick, Primace ,OCC, “Вшанування суботи в православній церкві“.]
