The Order of Ave Maria
The Order of Ave Maria is a Marian religious order. It was founded by Archbishop Harold Nicholson (Mar Joannes I) of the Ancient Catholic Church in 1951. Following his passing to the world of Spirit in 1968 the Order was dormant for some years before receiving a charter of renewal from the Presiding Bishop of EADM in 2008.
The role of the Order of Ave Maria is to promote love and devotion towards our heavenly Mother, Mary, and as she is the mother of all God’s children we involve ourselves with other people and groups that share in this devotion. The membership of the Order is drawn from members of EADM and of those bodies which are in communion with it, with others admitted by special invitation.
