 His Eminence Dr. Tony J. Pigott DD, SOBB.

Cardinal Tony was born in Lincolnshire, in 1965. His family moved to Ireland in 1972 and he was educated to a high standard and completed a National Certificate in Applied Physics & Electronics, in 1985. Later, around 2004 he further completed a Diploma Electronics & Computer Systems.

He had always believed he had a vocation to be a priest, even as a child. On 2nd of March 2013, in Swindon, he was ordained a priest of the United Old Catholic Church, by Archbishop Khern Oliver, and was later made Archdeacon of Ireland. Shortly afterwards, Archbishop Oliver moved across to the Ancient Catholic Church, and invited Fr. Tony to join him. On the 6 of July 2013, he was consecrated a bishop and once more honoured when in 2016, he was elevated to the rank of Cardinal. 

He moved to Tylorstown in 2019, where, by 2020, he began to notice an increase in the growth of Evil in the World, and committed himself to active ministry.

Mr. Clifford Jones.

 Clifford Jones was baptised into the faith as a child, into the St Mary Magdalene Roman Catholic Church, Ynyshir, where he remained active until his mid teens. Due to a turbulent youth, his attendance at church went into a hiatus until his mid 20s, where he decided to once again be counted as one of the faithful, when he began attending St Annes church, Ynyshir (Church in Wales). After marrying and moving to Tylorstown, his choice of church needed to change and so he began attending Holy Trinity and later, due to his evenings being taken up by charity works, St Dunstan’s church, Ferndale. Around 3 years ago he felt himself drawn to a different calling, when he felt his future lay in a more community focussed church. He has been a member of Acts church since that time and has also attended, other churches when working away or to support others in their faith. Clifford has decided to commit to the Ancient Catholic church, whilst still supporting other churches and has been called to service within the Catholic faith.  The first step of which will see him confirmed on Sunday September 29thand later it is hope that his journey may see him being ordained deacon.
