HISTORICAL and JURIDICAL PROFILE.
ORIGIN:

This Grand Priory recalls the eternally valid values of Christian Chivalry, Christian Culture, and Ecumenism. Therefore it forms part of the historical heritage of Religious - Chivalric Orders with a particular significant reference to the most ancient and eminent Greek Orthodox Order Of The Holy Sepulchre.

Along with the devotion to the Holy Sepulchre, the Grand Priory of St. Michael International highly regards the Ecumenical Movement surrounding the unity of the Chalice and the Resurrection of Christ in high esteem in its utmost reverence along with the recognition of the Saints depicted in our most holy icons. St. Michael International Grand Priory embraces the Hospitalar code of charity, which emanated from the earliest Crusaders. Even those founded by The Roman Emperor Constantine The Great, son of Saint Helen, who discovered the Holy Sepulchre and found the Holy Cross on which Jesus Christ was Crucified and Died.

Considering the influence of Constantine the Great upon the Ecclesiastical matters of The Church, leaves no doubt that this Order was also recognized by The Church
