Order of Saint John (chartered 1888)

The Order of St John, formally the Most Venerable Order of the Hospital of Saint John of Jerusalem ((フランス語:l'ordre très vénérable de l'Hôpital de Saint-Jean de Jérusalem)) and also known as St John International, is a royal order of chivalry first constituted as such by royal charter from Queen Victoria in 1888. It evolved from a faction of the Order of Malta that emerged in France in the 1820s and moved to Britain in the early 1830s, where, after operating under a succession of grand priors and different names, it became associated with the founding in 1882 of the St John Ophthalmic Hospital near the old city of Jerusalem and the St John Ambulance Brigade in 1887.
The order is found throughout the Commonwealth of Nations,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Who We Are )Hong Kong, the Republic of Ireland, and the United States of America,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Canada Wide > About Us > The Order of St. John )〕 with the world-wide mission "to prevent and relieve sickness and injury, and to act to enhance the health and well-being of people anywhere in the world."〔 The order's approximately 25,000 members, known as confrères,〔 are mostly of the Protestant faith, though those of other Christian denominations or other religions are accepted into the order. Except via appointment to certain government or ecclesiastical offices in some realms, membership is by invitation only and individuals may not petition for admission.
The Order of St John is perhaps best known through its service organisations, including St John Ambulance and St John Eye Hospital Group, the memberships and work of which are not constricted by denomination or religion. It is a constituent member of the Alliance of the Orders of St John of Jerusalem.
