St.
Benedict was born at Nursia in Italy. During his youth he witnessed
much vice and left his noble home to live as a hermit in penance and
prayer. In the mountains of Subiaco near Rome, St. Romanus instructed
him in asceticism.
Benedict’s reputation for piety gathered followers and he established
monasteries where he and his followers strove for community life under
rigorous rule. Ultimately unwilling to live under that rule, his
followers attempted to poison him.
In another incident, Benedict’s pet raven carried away tainted bread
intended for him. Benedict moved on to found the monastery at Monte
Cassino, a vital center of religious life to this day.
He eventually wrote his respected Rule which has guided communities in
the ways of religious life for centuries. In this icon, Benedict holds
a crozier as the patriarch of Western monasticism.
St. Benedict died at Monte Cassino after receiving Holy Communion and
was interred there with his sister, St. Scholastica. |
