Successions of l'Église Gnostique Catholique Apostolique
Succession of the French Gnostic Church and its Patriarchs

The following is a list of Patriarchs of the French Gnostic Church recognized by the Holy Synod, followed by the primary name of the Church as led by each Patriarch.

Succession of Primates of North America
Summary: Roger Saint Victor-Hérard – Robert Michael Cokinis – Tau Apollonius
|
Tau Charles, Roger Saint Victor-Hérard
Primat Évêque (1970-1989) Roger Saint Victor-Hérard (in Ecclesia Tau Charles) was appointed Apostolic Prefect of North America by Patriarch Andre Mauer (Tau Andreas). He was appointed Primat of North America by Patriarch Pedro Freire December 31, 1970. As a Bishop of the Church and as a greatly and highly celebrated Mason of Haiti and Martinist of the Parisian Ordre Martiniste, Bishop Hérard was highly respected by the heads of numerous esoteric fraternities, especially L'Ordre Martiniste and its Grand Master Philippe Encause, son of Gerard Encausse (PAPUS). As a lawyer and school teacher, Bishop Hérard fought forces of oppression from the government of Haiti, which at that time was seeking to trample the peasant population. He was obliged to leave Haiti in 1966 as a political refugee. Bishop Hérard died August 16, 1989. |

Tau Charles Harmonius II, Robert M. Cokinis
Primat Évêque (1989-2016) Robert Michael Cokinis (in ecclesia Tau Charles Harmonius II) was the first American-born Bishop of the Gnostic Church. He was elected Bishop of Wisconsin and Auxiliary Metropolitan of Chicago in August 1984. He was consecrated by Primat Rogert Saint Victor-Hérard Sunday November 4, 1984, on the Feast of Saint Charles, at the Benedictine Abbey at Benet Lake, Wisconsin. Bishop Cokinis was designated by Primat Bishop Hérard to advance the Church among English-speaking Americans, to incorporate the Church in the United States under the administrative title of Diocese of the Midwest (November 29, 1984), and to select American clergy for its Board of Trustees/Rectors. Upon the death of Bishop Hérard in 1989, Bishop Cokinis assumed the role of successor in accordance with Canon Law. Cokinis was advised by Rene Chambellant (Tau Renatus), Constitutional Patriarch, to organize high clergy of the Gnostic Church as an Ecumenical Gnostic College of Metropolitans (in accordance with the Constitution of Synesius, Seine Synode 1906), which he did beginning in 1991. Cokinis' leadership and actions as Primat of North America were subsequently recognized by the Gnostic College of Metropolitans and the Holy Synod. Bishop Cokinis died September 1, 2016.
