This is the movement of the Holy Family.

Welcome to our Rosary meditation.

Let's begin in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Amen.

That's call to mind all those we've promised to pray for,

especially the healing of Olivia and Margot through the

intercession of Blessed Pauline Jericho. Today is the Feast of St. Benedict.

As a young man, he moved to Rome around the year 500 to further his education.

There he observed that the lives of the people around him were totally out of control.

They were fearful, angry, and they lacked a sense of purpose and deep friendship. Most of all, they were not happy.

Benedict wanted more for himself, so he left Rome and settled in Subiako to live a life of work and prayer.

Many were attracted to his peace, which was the fruit of living a well-ordered and balanced life,

but they needed someone who would give them some

structure and guidance for their lives, and they asked him if they could join him

and Benedict built 12 small communities in the valley.

He then formed a simple way of life that he called a rule of life

to help them achieve what all people want, peace and happiness.

Do you desire a simpler way to go about life? Our Father who art in heaven, hallow would be your name.

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses

as we forgive those who trespass against us and lead us not into temptation but deliver

us from evil, amen.
