The Ecclesia Gnostica Catholica ( E.G.C. ) or Gnostic Catholic Church is the official Church of the Albion O.T.O. in the U.K.. The Church operates independently of Albion O.T.O., as envisaged by its modern day founder Aleister Crowley, the Prophet of Thelema. Crowley wrote the Gnostic Mass, the central rite of Ecclesia Gnostica Catholica, and received the Holy Books of Thelema, the foremost of these being Liber Al vel Legis - the Book of the Law
The Ecclesia Gnostica Catholica has its roots in many traditions; and our churches lineage includes such notables as Jules Doniel, Villatte and W. B. Crow. Aleister Crowley ordained W. B. Crow as his sole successor in the Ecclesia Gnostica Catholica and we are the only E.G.C. worldwide to hold this lineage and authority directly from Crowley. Our full lines of consecration along with the history of the E.G.C., and other relevant material made be viewed on this website.
The E.G.C. offers baptism, confirmation and ordination into the church and our monthly meetings in London and all Church activities are free.
