So, who was Saint Benedict?
Saint Benedict, the father of Western monasticism
As The Editors of Encyclopaedia Britannica wrote, Saint Benedict was born 480. in Nursia, once, Kingdom of the Lombards, nowadays, Italy.
He was a founder of the Benedictine monastery at Monte Cassino, Italy, and the father of Western monasticism. Born into a prominent family at Nursia in central Italy, he rejected the immoral and profligate life of the rich and became a hermit outside Rome, where he attracted disciples. At his monastery at Cassino, he formulated the Benedictine Rule, which became standard in monasteries throughout Europe. The Rule includes a probationary year before the vow of obedience and lifelong residence at one monastery, a ban on personal property, an abbot elected for life who appoints all other officers, and a precisely ordered day that includes five to six hours of liturgy and prayer, five hours of manual work, and four hours of scriptural and spiritual reading.
This golden rule is known as Ora et Labora – Pray and Work.
Saint Benedict of Nursia died 547. at his monastery in Monte Cassino.
The Saint Benedict Medal is a sacramental medal that contains symbols and text related to the life of Saint Benedict of Nursia, and this devotional medal originally came from a cross in honor of Saint Benedict.
Tradition holds that it protects from evil and vice because the legend says Saint Benedict was tempted by the devil three times. Yet, because of Saint Benedict’s strength and faith, he won Satan’s temptations each time.
Saint Benedict’s bracelet is worn because today’s people want to have Saint Benedict’s strong faith and commitment to our Christ and our Holy Father that will guard them through everyday challenges that life brings.
