Foundation Day observes many “firsts” in Salvatorian history

November 28, 2017

Over the years, our Salvatorian Family has enhanced the significance of our December 8th Foundation Day with a number of “firsts.” On December 8:

1881 Father Francis Jordan founded the Salvatorians (formerly Apostolic Teaching Society) in Rome.
1888 Mother Mary of the Apostles (now Blessed) co-founded the Sisters branch of the Salvatorians in Tivoli, Italy near Rome.
1914 The Society of the Divine Savior celebrated the first U.S. professions by Salvatorian Fathers and Brothers
1925 Mother of Good Counsel Parish was established in Milwaukee. More than 90 years later, it remains a Salvatorian parish.
1971 First Lay members in the U.S. make commitment to the Salvatorian Family.
