About the devotion
Saint Benedict of Nursia gave the West its great rule of monastic life — pray and work, in balance and in peace. His medal is one of the oldest sacramentals in the Church: the letters around its edge stand for a prayer of protection, and generations have kept it near a door, a bed, or a pocket as a quiet plea for God's guardianship against evil.
