Wednesday adult class: ST BENEDICT FOR TODAY
St. Benedict of Nursia was a sixth-century monk confronted by chaos in the Church and society following Rome's fall. Writing a new rule of life for Christians, Benedict built enduring Christian communities based on principles of order, hospitality, stability, and prayer. His spiritual communities of hope were strongholds of light throughout the Dark Ages, and saved not just Christianity but Western civilization. This short course will explore what St Benedict has to say to Christians today.
