The community of the
Sisters of St John,
established as a
religious Institute
of Diocesan Right by
the Archbishop of
Lyon 25th
March 1994, was
founded during the
pontificate of John
Paul II, by Fr.
Marie Dominique
Philippe on the 8th
December 1982, seven
years after the
Brothers of St John,
in view of a
contemplative life.
Shortly thereafter a
community of
Apostolic Sisters
was founded within
the same religious
family.
