Paris Foreign Missions Society
The Society of Foreign Missions of Paris (french: Société des Missions Etrangères de Paris, short M.E.P.) is a Roman Catholic missionary organization. It is not a religious institute, but an organization of secular priests and lay persons dedicated to missionary work in foreign lands. The Society of Foreign Missions of Paris was established 1658–63. In 1659, instructions for establishment of the Paris Foreign Missions Society were given by Rome's Sacred Congregation for the Propagation of the Faith. This marked the creation of a missionary institution that, for the first time, did not depend on the control of the traditional missionary and colonial powers of Spain or Portugal. In the 350 years since its foundation, the institution has sent more than 4,200 missionary priests to Asia and North America. Their mission is to adapt to local customs and languages, develop a native clergy, and keep close contacts with Rome.Missions, p.4 In the 19th century, local persecutions of ...

Diocese Of Arcadiopolis
The Diocese of Arcadiopolis (modern Lüleburgaz in East Thrace) was an ecclesiastical diocese established in the fifth century and extant until the fourteenth century. The see is first mentioned in the Council of Ephesus in 431, when Bishop Euprepius held the joint episcopacy of Vize and Arcadiopolis. The same arrangement is attested in the Council of Chalcedon in 451. The two cities probably did not become separate bishoprics until the end of the century.Raymond Janin''La hiérarchie ecclésiastique dans le diocèse de Thrace'' in ''Revue des études byzantines'', vol. 17, 1959, pp. 146-149. Arcadiopolis was originally a suffragan bishop of Heraclea in Europa, metropolitan see and capital of the Roman province of Europa, but became an autocephalous archbishopric by the late ninth century, and eventually a metropolitan see probably during the reign of Isaac II Angelos (r. 1185–95). Of its bishops, Lucianus was at the Council of Chalcedon (451), Sabbatius at the Second Council of C ...
