Understanding Saint Benedict

| | Comments (0)
San Benedetto.jpg"St. Benedict's is best understood as the spirituality of ordinary life... The Benedictine is a spirituality of work: man's by labor, God's by prayer." (John Senior)



Saint Benedict (480-543) "If one wishes to understand in depth his personality and life, he can find in the disposition of the Rule the exact image of all the actions of the master, because this saintly man is incapable of teaching other than he lived." (Saint Gregory)
