Throughout history,

our great ancestors lived and died in

their Faith, fought valiantly for the

highest and noblest ideals of

civilization, produced the great works

of architecture and art, founded the

universities, hospitals, and institutions

of charity. They were not indifferent,

but lived by the motto:

We wear our Faith on our sleeves.

God and His Angels and Saints

were their strength and inspiration.

​

Upright rulers of nations,

noble knights and soldiers going into

battle especially asked for God's

assistance and protection in life and in

death. Forming a Holy Alliance with

God's ANGELS & SAINTS,

our forbearers augmented their

prayers by wearing or carrying on

their person, adorning their battle gear

and quarters, and attaching to their

modes of transport, blessed sacred

images, symbols, medals, and statues.
