Synod of Victory

[1] While some sources say it was a continuation of the Synod of Brefi to condemn the heresy of Pelagianism,[2] others, such as Baring-Gould, say it was in regards to penitential canons.[3] In 550, Saint David attended the Synod of Brefi and spoke against Pelagianism.His speech led his fellow monks to elect him primate of the region.[4] The synod ratified the canons and decrees of Brefi[5] as well as a code of rules which he had drawn up for the regulation of the British Church, a copy of which remained in the Cathedral of S. David's until it was lost in an incursion of pirates.This article about history of Christianity is a stub.
