The Scapular of the Holy Trinity is a devotional scapular associated with the
Confraternity of The Holy Trinity and the Secular Third Order of the Most Holy
Trinity.
Pope Innocent III approved the Order of
the Trinitarians (Order of the Holy Trinity and Captives) in 1198 with its
Rule. It was founded by St. John de Matha after
his vision of Christ with two captives around 1193. The indulgences of the Confraternity
were approved by the Congregation of Indulgences in 1899.
It is a white scapular with a cross of which the transverse
shaft is blue and the longitudinal shaft red. It is worn by members of the
Confraternity of the Blessed Trinity (or other Trinitarian association that
makes use of the scapular) It is a sign of consecration to the Holy Trinity and
of fraternity.
