I'm pretty sensitive to this, and really don't like books which inject religion (of any flavor) into the mystery with no good reason, but as AT Drake mentions, the medieval background pretty much comes with a fair amount of religion, and that's just the way it was. I regard this series (which I quite like) in the same very acceptable historical mystery crowd as Ellis Peters/Brother Cadfael, Margaret Frazer/Sister Frevisse, Peter Tremayne/Sister Fidelma, etc...

Thank you for this recommendation. I don't mind religion in my books as long as it's relevant and this sounds like it fits the bill!
(And of course thanks, as always, to ATDRAKE for the freebie/bargain/sale original post!)
