The life of Saint Benedict is found in “The Dialogues” written by Pope St. Gregory the Great some forty years after Benedict’s death. It is not a biography as we know the genre today, but the details supply us with a basic outline of the life and times of Saint Benedict. Among the titles given to Saint Benedict over the centuries are the following: “Messenger of Peace, Architect of Unity, Teacher of Culture and Civilization, Father of Western Monasticism, Herald of the Christian Faith, and Father of the Whole of Europe.” Today, Benedict’s disciples, both men and women, can be found on every inhabited continent of the world, leading lives dedicated to “Prayer and Work,” as Holy Father Benedict taught in his rule and by his life.
