MARTIN CONNELL ____________________________________ Cotidie ante oculos: On the Cornerstones of Saint John’s Churches, Old and New Abstract Drawing from the Bible and the Rule of Saint Benedict, campus inscriptions on the Saint John’s campus were set in place at times when all Roman Catholic worship and art was in Latin. Because we pass them every day often without appreciating their significance and potential inspiration, Cotidie ante oculos takes two of the most unseen articles of campus art—the cornerstones of the former and current abbey churches, unrejected by builders and set in place in 1879 and 1958— and places them in the cultures, societies, and beliefs of Christian and Benedictine life in those years. The essay aims to help us who see the cornerstones day by day appreciate their petrified significance.

    Prayer to Saint Benedict "Admirable Saint and Doctor of Humility, you practiced what you taught, assiduously praying for God's glory and lovingly fulfilling all work for God and the benefit of all human beings. You know the many physical dangers that surround us today, often caused or occasioned by human inventions. Guard us against poisoning of the body as well as of mind and soul, and thus be truly a 'Blessed' one for us. Amen." Prayer to Saint Benedict "Glorious Saint Benedict, sublime model of virtue, pure vessel of God's grace! Behold me humbly kneeling at your feet. I implore you in your loving kindness to pray for me before the throne of God. To you I have recourse in the dangers that daily surround me. Shield me against my selfishness and my indifference to God and to my neighbor. Inspire me to imitate you in all things. May your blessing be with me always, so that I may see and serve Christ in others and work for His kingdom. Graciously obtain for me from God those favors and graces which I need so much in the trials, miseries and afflictions of life. Your heart was always full of love, compassion and mercy toward those who were afflicted or troubled in any way. You never dismissed without consolation and assistance anyone who had recourse to you. I therefore invoke your powerful intercession, confident in the hope that you will hear my prayers and obtain for me the special grace and favor I earnestly implore.

After it was cleaned as part of restoration it turned out to be a cross. The excavation was located outside, near the wall of the chancel of the Church of St. Nicholas (Fig. 1). The research conducted confirmed the conclusions drawn in previous years, i.e. that the church grounds had been used as a graveyard. The fact that the graveyard had been used for a long time was proved by numerous burials, overlapping grave pits and ossuaries1. Devotional items have been long connected with the Christian tradition. They include crucifixes, medals, scapulars, and prayer ropes. The fact that they are found during excavations in churches and graveyards may indicate that they were highly popular in the Late Middle Ages and the Modern Era. We know of crucifixes and other devotional items found during archaeological research conducted in churches and graveyards in such places as: Maniowy in Podhale (Chudzińska 1998), Lubiń (Białobłocki 1991/1992: 161–185), Trzemeszno (Wie- wióra 1995: 433–442), Toruń (Grupa 2005: 20–21; Kwiatkowski 2005: 31–39; Stawarz 2014: 20), Strzelno (Sulkowska-Tuszyńska 2006), Pułtusk (Kołyszko 2007: 1 Ossuaries are places where human remains were gathered after earlier burials in the graveyard and the church had been emptied (Grupa et al.

  • The Medal Or Cross of St. Benedict
    The Medal or Cross of St. Benedict Medals, like crosses, statues and paintings, are a time-honored means of fostering and expressing Christian faith and devotion. They remind us who we are and stir us to prayer and service. They are not charms, though often enough folk custom attaches almost superstitious meaning to them. This enter discusses the origin of the Benedictine Medal/Cross, the form which it now has which was established in 1880 at Montecassino, the use of the medal, before giving the prayer used in blessings the medals. Origin The cross is a key Christian symbol, one which Gregory the Great says Benedict used for blessing and working miracles. Through the centuries, St. Benedict has been shown holding a cross in one hand and his Rule in the other. It is not known when the first medal of St. Benedict was produced. In the late Middle Ages some letters were placed around the cross on the reverse of the medal. A manuscript from the abbey of Metten, dating from 1415, explains the meaning of the letters. Jubilee Medal of Montecassino The most familiar form of the medal of St. Benedict today is one designed in 1880 by the monks of Montecassino to commemorate the 1400th anniversary of the birth of St. Benedict. The design was produced at the Benedictine Abbey of Beuron in Germany. On the front side of the medal is the image of St. Benedict. In his right hand he holds a cross, and in his left, his Rule. On each side are pedestals recalling incidents from Gregory's life of Benedict in which Benedict was saved from poisoning.

  • St Benedict Sheet
    St. Benedict Medal Use of the Medal (From the Order of St Benedict- OSB) There is no special way prescribed for carrying or wearing the Medal of St. Benedict. It can be worn on a chain around the neck, attached to one's rosary, kept in one's pocket or purse, or placed in one's car or home. The medal is often put into the foundations of houses and building, on the walls of barns and sheds, or in one's place of business. The purpose of using the medal in any of the above ways is to call down God's blessing and protection upon us, wherever we are, and upon our homes and possessions, especially through the intercession of St. Benedict. By the conscious and devout use of the medal, it becomes, as it were, a constant silent prayer and reminder to us of our dignity as followers of Christ. The medal is a prayer of exorcism against Satan, a prayer for strength in time of temptation, a prayer for peace among ourselves and among the nations of the world, a prayer that the Cross of Christ be our light and guide, a prayer of firm rejection of all that is evil, a prayer of petition that we may with Christian courage "walk in God's ways, with the Gospel as our guide," as St. Benedict urges us. A profitable spiritual experience can be ours if we but take the time to study the array of inscriptions and representations found on the two sides of the medal.
