St. Benedict was deeply committed to prayer - in fact, he devoted his whole life to it as a hermit! Catholics often pray to St. Benedict for healing, especially from kidney disease, as well as for increased fervor in doing the Lord's will and resisting temptation. While you don't have to throw yourself into a thorn bush to pray to this saint, we are proud to offer a number of products to help your prayers to St. Benedict, including St. Benedict prayer cards and a novena booklet to pray the novena to St. Benedict.
