Saints Faith, Hope, Charity were the daughters of Saint Sophia. They were tortured and martyred for their faith at young ages for the persecutions of Hadrain.
Faith was 12. Hope was 10. Charity was 9.
Their mother, Saint Sophia was a legendary mother. Three days after the death of her daughters, Sophia died peacefully while praying at their tomb. Since her name means wisdom, and her daughters were names for the virtues, some writers believe she is a personification of an allegory.
