The Xaverian Missionaries

The Pious Society of Saint Francis Xavier for the Foreign Missions or the Xaverians had one member working in the Archdiocese of Bamenda. He opened St. Paul’s Parish, Benakuma, where he served as Parish Priest for almost two decades. He got retired and took residence in the same parish, but later left due to ill health and could not return when the armed conflict in the Northwest and Southwest Regions of Cameroon escalated. Hence, the society gradually faced out of the diocese.
