Self_imposed rules of the EGC
MANY INQUIRIES have been received regarding the procedure for
ordaining the Novitiate Priests, Novitiate Priestess, Priests, Novitiate
Priestess, and Exorcists. Here are the normal steps taken to ordain
someone:
The Secretary of the E.G.C. Board is notified by a Bishop of the
intended ordination. When the Secretary OK's the ordination, the Bishop
performs the ordination. The Bishop then informs the Secretary of the
E.G.C. of the date of the ordination.
In cases of emergency, a fully ordained Priest (or Priestess) may
ordain a Novitiate Priestess (or Priest) to serve for one Mass only.
This provision allows for properly-sanctioned masses to be held when one
member of the team of celebrants fails to show up for a scheduled mass.
This provision, however, is only used in emergency situations and is not
designed to replace normal ordinations.
Bishops are selected by the Patriarch and ordained by the Patriarch.
To summarize who can do what in the church:
Priest/Priestess Baptize
Priest/Priestess Emergency Ordinations for Novitiates
Bishop Confirm
Bishop Marry
Bishop Bury
Bishop Ordain Novitiate Priest/Priestess
Bishop Ordain Priest/Priestess
E.G.C. Board Land a Bishop
Patriarch Consecrate Bishops
A Landed Bishop is assigned a specific area of responsibility. Not
all bishops in the church are Landed Bishops. Some prefer to be
Wandering Bishops. Of course, bishops are exorcists, exorcists are
priests/esses, and priests/esses are deacons.
