Glory to the Name of Jesus, the Saviour!
The apostolic activity of the Order consists to a large extent in running parishes. Then there is the formation of priests, the running of schools and social centers, the conduct of ecumenical activities, and the dialogue with Islam.
Our Founder
We were founded in 1683 by Euthymios Saifi, bishop of Tyre and Sidon, with the aim of supporting pastoral and missionary activities by well-educated Melkite clergy, choosing for them the rule of Saint Basil the Great.

Our motherhouse, Holy Saviour Monastery, is located in Joun, El-Chouf, near Sidon, Lebanon.
