Prologue Pt. 6
The Rule of Benedict January 6
In a sentence, Benedict states the purpose of the monastery: to "prepare our hearts and our bodies to serve [God] under the guidance of holy obedience" (translation by Patrick Berry OSB). It is my prayer that our order grows into and embodies this very purpose as well. Therefore, "Conscious in this undertaking of our own weakness let us ask the Lord to give us through his grace the help we need."
