Below is a bit of praise Servers Grace Brandenburg & Tyson Heffley given to the saint of the day by the last pope to take the name Lector 1 Rich Dixon of Benedict.

In this light, July 6 - Beverly Brown, Linda Land & Gene Klingele one understands better the expression that Benedict took from St. July 12 - Beverly Brown, Veronica Stallbaumer & Cyprian and that is summarized in his Rule (IV, 21)—the monks' Marlene Goll program of life: Nihil amori Christi praeponere.
