Lord Chancellor of the Church

The Metropolitan Secretary of State, officially Secretary of State of His Holiness The Archbishop, presides over the government of the Church of the Holy Light and Holy See of the Archbishop; Northshire Abbey. The Metropolitan Secretary is regarded as being in charge of the political and diplomatic activities of the Church and is thus referred to as being the Church's de facto "Prime Minister." Alongside the Vicar-General, the Metropolitan Secretary serves as one of the two highest ranking and most integral servants of the Archbishop.

The current Secretary of State is Lord Erich Gottfried Manstein.
