Chapter 50

The Rule of Benedict April 1

We have in this chapter a good example of circumstances that are more similar to our own as non-cloistered members of an order.  We must be equipped with spiritual practices that can sustain us throughout our days outside of a monastery, just as those referenced here who are working at a great distance.  This task of becoming so equipped has, in fact, been the most important work that our order has done over this first year.
