OUR STORY

Born in Béziers, France, on 13 November 1802 and ordained a priest in 1826, Jean Gailhac served as chaplain of the civil and military hospital in his native city, where he was able to see the difficulties faced by women who had become the victims of a life of prostitution. Gailhac arranged for many of those women to be housed in Montpellier, paying their lodging from his small salary. At the point of no longer being able to afford his growing expenses, he founded the Good Shepherd shelter for women in Béziers and later, an orphanage.
