| 0:00.0 | Welcome to our daily rosary meditation. Let's begin in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. |
| 0:04.9 | Amen. Let's call to mind all those we've promised to pray for. |
| 0:09.7 | Today is the Feast of St. Benedict, the founder of the Benedictan religious order. But I'll bet you never knew this. |
| 0:18.3 | St. Benedict was not a priest. In fact, he never intended on starting a religious |
| 0:25.2 | order. What he intended was to give everyone a new way in which they could live life. |
| 0:34.3 | When Benedict was 20, he moved to Rome, around the year 500, to further his education, |
| 0:41.3 | and he looked around at the world and saw that everyone's lives were out of control. |
| 0:50.3 | Now, Benedict was just a layperson who looked at the world and said, this is crazy. |

| 1:34.4 | Our Father who art in heaven, hollow it be your name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. |
| 1:41.1 | Give us to stay our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who |
| 1:46.8 | trespass against us and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil, amen. |
| 1:52.7 | Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed are thou among women. Blessed is a fruit |
| 1:58.1 | of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God. |
| 2:01.6 | Pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. |
| 2:04.6 | Amen. |
| 2:05.6 | Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. |
