MISSION

Founded near Our Lord's Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem c. 1099 A. D., the Sovereign Order of Saint John of Jerusalem is a chivalric brotherhood in the faithful service of God and His Church. The Hospitaller Knights strive for perfection of charity by impartial service to the sick, injured and poor; by preservation of the ancient liturgies and traditions of the Church; and by the propagation and defense of the Kingdom of Christ.
