APOSTOLIC
SUCCESSION LINES
of
The
Prince-Archbishop Dr. Stephen d'Guelph Nott-Brunswick (von
Wolfenbüttel), PRIMACE OF THE ORTHODOX CHURCH OF THE CULDEES, and
Protector of Ecclesiastical and House Orders.
Heraldry
of the new House of Nott-Brunswick (von Wolfenbüttel), proposed in
1929 and adopted from 1935 during the House of Wolfenbüttel-Brunswick
succession crisis.
The
purpose of demonstrating these lines are as obliged as an
international Minister visiting other jurisdictions and officiating
in the administration of Sacraments. To gain access to the church of
Jerusalem was a primary concern. As we know the Elect will be
regathered. The Jerusalem based orders of Chivalry are also
referenced. So we are covered for all venues, whether they be of
Protestant, Catholic, Orthodox, or of other Christian backgrounds. It
is also often customary to consecrate a Minister anew in foreign(or
local) jurisdictions, to further confirm the valid accepted
succession, or preferred succession via the lines of their regional
Saints.
- Archbishop Parker, the first Archbishop of Canterbury in the reign of Queen Elizabeth promised in his letter to Calvin, concerning the proposal of a union among all Protestants, reminding him that the Church of England would “retain her Episcopacy; but not as from Pope Gregory, who sent Augustine the monk hither, but from Joseph of Arimathea.” ("The Life and Acts of Archbishop Parker " By John Strype, Published in 1711.)
These are a
few of the lines. Certificates, Diplomas and references are
available.
Our English
Liturgy (BCP) is not only used in Anglican Celtic and Protestant
circles. It is also canonically established in several Orthodox,
Catholic, and Lutheran communions.

Arms of Stephen Michael awarded for the Office Archbishop Elect from
