Faith, Hope and Charity
Faith, Hope and Charity (Latin: Fides, Spes et Caritas, New Testament Greek: (Pistis, Elpis, and Agape), Church Slavonic: (Věra, Nadežda, Ljuby) are a group of Christian martyred saints, around whom a considerable amount of legendary lore has gathered. Their mother is said to have been Sophia (Greek for Wisdom); Sapientia (Latin for Wisdom) is also mentioned in some accounts, though not as their mother.
