About our Bishop: Mar Michael

The Bishop of Congregation Benim Avraham is Mar Michael Abportus, OSL.

Mar Michael was born in Houston, Texas, and grew up as a member of the Episcopal Church where he was baptized and confirmed.  He accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior at the 1964 Billy Graham Crusade in the Astrodome.  Mar Michael attended Conroe High School, and earned his B.A. at Rice University.  He later attended the College of Pastoral Education (Conroe, Texas) as well as Sta. Maria Theological Seminary (Honduras).

He later served in Honduras as a missionary for fourteen years where he planted and ministered to churches, taught school, taught at the seminary, and did medical and development work, and worked with Missions to Seaman, and with street children.

Mar Michael is a certified Fireman, and was ordained Bishop in Knoxville, Tennessee in 2005.  He speaks five languages and is married to Maria Thannisch (ne Paz) of Honduras, with whom he has six children.

FOR THE CURIOUS:

Mar is an eastern term for a Bishop.

Abportus is the Latin name for LaPorte, the 'see' city.  It's usage in Mar Michael's name follows the western tradition of bishops connecting their name with the name of the city of their episcopate.

The letters OSL after Mar Michael's name stand for the International Order of Saint Luke the Physician, an interdenominational fellowship dedicated to prayer and ministry for healing.

Mar Martin Severis (Bishop Craig Davis)(Old Catholic Orthodox Church)

The Most Reverend Max Broussard

 

Archbishop Max Broussard was born September 10, 1933, at Pecan Island, Louisiana, and

baptized August 31, 1973, at the Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist, Lafayette, Louisiana.

He was ordained Deacon on September 18, 1975, at Immaculata Seminary Chapel in

Lafayette, Louisiana, and Priest on May 28, 1976, at Our Lady of Fatima Church in

Lafayette, Louisiana, by Gerard Louis Frey, Bishop of Louisiana.

 

He resigned the Priesthood of the Roman Catholic Church December 5, 1985, and was consecrated Bishop on June 14, 1988, at the Chapel of St. Augustine of Canterbury, Houma, Louisiana.

 

The following lines of succession, through Bishop Joseph Turnage, Bishop in the Anglican

Church in America (ACA), are Archbishop Broussard’s principal lines, because Bishop

Turnage was his principal consecrator.

 

The general rule is that a bishop must be ordained by two or three other bishops. However the commentator on the First Canon of the Apostles in the Pedalion, or Rudder, the authoritative collection of Canon Law of the early Church, points out that an exception is permitted in the Apostolic Constitutions, Book VIII, Chapter 27. As he says, (page 4) “[The Apostolic Constitutions] command that anyone ordained by a single bishop deposed from office along with the one who ordained him, except only in case of persecution or some other impediment by reason whereof a number of bishops cannot get together and he has to be ordained by one alone, just as was Siderius ordained bishop of Palaibisca, according to Synesius, not by three, but by one bishop, Philo, because of the scarcity of bishops in those times.”

 

In virtue of this exception and for the same reason, and in light of the teaching of St. Augustine that a Bishop with valid orders may confer valid orders alone provided that both he and the candidate have the right intention, this consecration was by Bishop Turnage alone, with the election and assent of the people and clergy of the congregation present.

 

In a ceremony in Holy Trinity Co-Cathedral, New Orleans, Louisiana, on March 13, 1992, three bishops, +William J. Oldring, +David Lionel Jones, and Archbishop William G. Spaeth, Jr., conveyed their Apostolic Successions to Archbishop Broussard.

 

On November 7, 1992, in Jacksonville, Florida, Archbishop Ignatius Robert Cash elevated Bishop Broussard to Archbishop of the United Catholic Church of America and, through the laying-on of hands, invested him with +Cash’s own Apostolic Succession.

He was Archbishop of Rheims from 1657 until his death in 1671, and was made a Cardinal. It is from Archbishop Barberini that the Roman Succession from Peter branches off from the Bishops of Rome.

A Historical Note

 

When Clement XI issued the Bull Unigenitus (1713), many Jansenists of France fled to Holland to escape the persecution of the Jesuits, who demanded that the Church of Holland return to them for punishment. Archbishop of Utrecht John van Neercassel refused to comply.

 

On his death, therefore, Clement refused to allow the consecration of a new Archbishop and abolished the ancient See of Utrecht, founded by St. Willibrord in the seventh century.

 

Forced to function without a Bishop, the Church obtained confirmations and priestly ordinations by sending candidates to other countries, notably Ireland, where Luke Fagan, Roman Bishop of Meath, was willing to confirm and ordain.

 

When Dominique Marie de Varlet, who had been appointed Coadjutor to the Bishop of

Babylon, passed through Amsterdam on his way to take up his new position, he was

prevailed upon to confirm 604 children who had been unable to go to other countries for

Confirmation.

 

In March 1720, he was suspended from office because of these Confirmations. Returning to Amsterdam, he resided there. The Chapter of Utrecht persuaded him to consecrate Bishops for them.

 

The first consecration was on October 15, 1724, or Cornelius Steenhoven as Archbishop of

Utrecht. The Bishop of Rome declared the consecration, and all subsequent ones, illicit

(not invalid) and the Church of Utrecht, soon joined by Deventer and Haarlem, was

considered to be in schism.

 

It was not until 1870, after the Decree of Papal Jnfallibility, that the Old Catholic Church formally separated from the Roman Church. That is why Casparus Johannes Rinkel is the first in the above line to be called an Old Catholic Bishop.

Table of succession of the Patriachate of Antioch showing its western development. This patriarchate has never ceased to elect and consecrate her own Patriarch and has preserved the Apostolic Succession unbroken. It was the first Gentile Church founded by St. Peter in 35 A.D. according to the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, and it was here that the followers of Jesus Christ were first called Christians.

ARCHBISHOP WILLIAM G. SPAETH, JR.

 

Archbishop Spaeth was consecrated Bishop by Peter Zurawetzky and Nicholas Illyisci of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, and David Mark Baxter of the Orthodox Church in America. He was made an Archbishop on November 30, 1990, in Meridian, Mississippi, by Archbishop/Primate Karl Barwin of the Lutheran Orthodox Church, who was consecrated on December 7, 1985, by Archbishop Bertil Persson of the Apostolic Episcopal Church, head of St. Ephrem’s Institute in Solna, Sweden. Archbishop Barwin thereby received, among others, the Succession of the Catholicate/Patriarchate of Assyria, which traces its succession, with some interregna, back to Thomas the Apostle.
