Product Detail

The Order of the Most Holy Trinity was founded in the area of Cerfroid, some 80 km northeast of Paris, at the end of the twelfth century. Papal documents refer to the founder as St. John de Matha, whose feast day is celebrated on 17 December. The founding-intention for the Order was the ransom of Christians held captive by non-Christians, a consequence of crusading and of pirating along the Mediterranean coast of Europe. Its distinctive cross of red and blue can be traced to its beginnings. This scapular is worn for the release of captives, of those held in bondage. (That could be to Freemasonry, the occult, addictions, etc)
