Encyclopedia > Celtic Catholic Church

The Celtic Catholic Church a Western Rite church that counts itself as both Catholic and Orthodox. It specifically traces its Apostolic Succession to Archbishop of Canterbury William Sancroft's associates, the non-jurors, specifically those who fled to Wales in the 17th century. It also traces its tradition back to the mission that, according to medieval legend, Saint Joseph of Arimathea took to Glastonbury and the Celts in 63 AD. Unfortunately, its modern incarnation is unable to demonstrate any existence before the 20th century.


The Celtic Catholic Church emphasizes the Nicene and Apostles' Creeds, omitting "filioque" from the Nicene creed. Mass is celebrated in English.
