Devotion to our Lady of Good Remedy developed out of a dire situation.

For 800 years, European Catholics were invaded and captured by Muslims. Sometimes, the Muslims would ask for exorbitant amounts of money to free the slaves.
And so, good Catholics created religious orders, such as the Trinitarian order, to help free these slaves by raising monetary funds.
These Orders turned to our Lady for help and she did not disappoint. Thus, she began to be known under the name “Our Lady of Good Remedy”.
Our Lady helped the religious orders to raise the funds to free the Catholic slaves in Europe. We also have recourse to her when we are in dire and desperate financial need.
