Society of St. John the Evangelist

The Society of St John the Evangelist (SSJE) is an Anglican religious order for men. The members live under a rule of life and, at profession, make monastic vows of poverty, celibacy and obedience. SSJE was founded in 1866 at Cowley, Oxford, England, by Father Richard Meux Benson, a priest in the Church of England, and Fr Charles Chapman Grafton. Known colloquially as the Cowley Fathers, the society was the first stable religious community of men to be established in the Anglican Communion since the English Reformation.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 About Us )
For many years the society had houses in Scotland, India, South Africa, Japan and Canada.
==North American congregation==
In 1870, the society came to Boston, Massachusetts, where it became part of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America. The members of the North American congregation live at a monastery designed by Ralph Adams Cram in Cambridge, near Harvard Square. They also keep a rural retreat centre, Emery House, in West Newbury, where guests can stay in small hermitages in the meadow.
The community's chief ministries are preaching, spiritual direction, and hospitality. For some years they have been affiliated with St. George's College, Jerusalem, serving as chaplains on a number of pilgrimages to the Holy Land each year. They have also conducted mission trips to Africa. Individual brothers work in a variety of local and regional ministries with students, prisoners, soldiers, the homeless, and persons affected by HIV and AIDS. One of the brothers, M. Thomas Shaw, SSJE, served as the 15th Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Massachusetts. The current superior, Geoffrey Tristram SSJE, studied theology at Pembroke College, Cambridge University where he received his BA and MA, attended Westcott House theological college in Cambridge and was ordained in Salisbury Cathedral in 1979. In 1999 he came to the United States to test his vocation with the society, where he was life-professed in 2004. During his time in the society he has travelled widely in the United States, Canada, Great Britain, the Holy Land and Africa, leading retreats and workshops, preaching, teaching and offering spiritual direction. He has served as chaplain to the House of Bishops of the Episcopal Church.
Prior to 2007, Cowley Publications was operated by the Society. In that year, it was sold to Rowman & Littlefield.
