CWN Editor's Note: In an interview with the Fides news agency, Father Luigi Buccarello, the superior general of the Trinitarians, offered insight into the religious order’s current priorities.
Founded by St. John of Matha (1160-1223) for the redemption of Christians enslaved by Muslims during the Crusades, the Trinitarians now focus on interreligious dialogue and religious freedom “in support of our specific mission of helping persecuted Christians.”
Father Buccarello granted the interview at the conclusion of the order’s general chapter, whose motto was “Persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.”
