Apostles of Infinite Love
The Apostles of Infinite Love (French: ApĂ´tres de l'amour infini) is a traditionalist Independent Catholic religious group active in various parts of the world, with its headquarters being in Quebec. It was founded by Michel Collin, a French Catholic priest in Lille, who proclaimed himself Pope Clement XV, after receiving a vision from God crowning him with a papal tiara. Initially heading a religious congregation that had Catholic archdiocesan approval, Jean-Gaston Tremblay merged his religious community with the Apostles of Infinite Love and led it for a time. The Apostles of Infinite Love has attracted traditionalist Catholics unhappy and discontent with the modernizing changes made during the Second Vatican Council.
