Is it quite unusual that the UK would have something called the Church of the Jedi?”
The UK Church of the Jedi is a church of Jediism that was founded in 2008 by brothers Barney and Daniel Jones. Barney, also known as Master Jonba Hehol, and Daniel, also known as Master Morda Hehol, stated that their church will offer sermons on the Force, lightsaber training, and meditation techniques. Members who are drawn to the dark side of the force could be faced with possible expulsion from the church. According to Barney, the religion is about life improvement, inner peace, and changing one’s lifestyle so one has a more fulfilling existence. The church’s main chapter is located in Anglesey, Wales.
