Large Black Benedict Rosary
Product Details
St. Benedict's medal anchors this rosary — a small bronze door into a tradition of monastic prayer and protection that stretches back fifteen centuries.
Few sacramentals are as widely loved as the medal of St. Benedict. The Church grants special blessings for it, and the Benedictine tradition surrounds it with a long history of healings and deliverances. Joined to the prayers of the rosary, it draws the one who prays into the steady rhythm of monastic devotion that has shaped Catholic life for fifteen centuries.
