Holy Trinity is the foundational mission of the Missionary Servants of the Most Holy Trinity who are celebrating their first 100 years. The community as well as the lay group (Missionary Cenacle Apostolate) and the sisters (Missionary Servants of the Most Blessed Trinity) were founded by Father Thomas Augustine Judge, C.M. in the Diocese of Mobile. Bishop Edward Allen sent a letter approving the new community on Aug. 21, 1921.
