At the second part of the 19'h century the Catholic Church encouraged its members
to create new organisations and religious  orders for  organising the missionary
activities in a more systemarical and modern way. These orders shared the certain
part of the world among them for their activities. The Assomptionİst order, wich is
the subject of this aı"'ticle,  with the promotion of the Church, chose the East
European countries including Turkey. The main task of the order is the integration
of the Eastern Churches to the Catholic Church. Emmanuel d'Alzon who is the
founder of the order, is a french bishop. In order :to realise its main task, the order,
wich has been backed by the French catholics, uses all sorts of press and the media
facilities and the educational activities. They also organise pilgrimages to religious
sites. The Assomptionists organİsed most of these activities in different cities of
Turkey over the long years. In this  article we tried to analyse the  histerical
developme~ıt of this order, its founder and its activies, especially in connection with
Turkey.
