Our Lords the Sick

Stephen Mossman and Rebecca Raven discuss the caritative impulse at the heart of the Hospitaller mission: the care for the sick. How did the sisters and brothers of the Order of St John realize that mission? What were their hospitals like, and who did they serve? What else did they do for the poor and the sick of medieval and early modern Europe? And what was their role in providing the medieval equivalent of a food bank? We would love to hear from our listeners! We will be recording a special podcast at the end of the series to answer your questions. If you want to ask anything about the history of the Order, the books themselves, the Museum or anything else – or you have any other feedback for us – then please write to us at museum@sja.org.uk [museum@sja.org.uk]. We’ll do our best to answer!
