Saint Benedict- Patron Saint of Europe. Father of Western Monasticism.
His Motto: Pray and Work!
His spirituality, leadership and holiness were instrumental in saving the Christian culture of Europe from the barbarians. It is small wonder that our current Pope took his name as he faces the forces of neo-paganism and the modern barbarians of secularism, licentiousness, and mindless materialism.
Father Ed Broom, OMV, is Associate Pastor of St. Peter Chanel Church in Hawaiian Gardens, California. He is a member of the Oblates of the Virgin Mary and was ordained by Saint John Paul II on May 25, 1986. Fr. Ed teaches Catholic Ignatian Marian Spirituality through articles, podcasts, a radio show, retreats and spiritual direction.
