Today is the feast of All Saints of the Benedictine Order; tomorrow All Souls.

At least at “my” monastery, which is olivetan.

Does this hold throughout the Benedictine order, does anyone know?

There are a couple of Benedictine ordos online. The English Benedictine Congregation shows November 13 as the feast of All Saints of the Benedictine Order.

The American-Cassinese Congregation says “Within eight days after All Saints, the Office of the day and the Conventual Mass are to be offered in each monastery for the deceased members of that community” (The Directory, D 71.5). I don’t know what Directory they are referring to.

Like many things Benedictine, it probably depends on the monastery.

Thanks! That is very interesting :cool:

As I have mentioned before, “my” monastery even prays its own LotH (Plus, if you will).
 
Anyone have any recommendation of a few good Benedictine/Cistercian/etc. blogs or podcasts? I have found some through searching, but its hard to know whether they are providing good content, if they are faithful, etc. At the risk of being uncharitable, only one of those that I found so far has inspired me with any sort of confidence.

So, those who are into such things, if you have a recommendation I would be interested in hearing it.

Peace,
 
Can I suggest VULTUS CHRISTI, the blog of Dom Mark Daniel Kirby of the new traditional foundation, Stamullen Priory in Ireland. It is faithful and sound - vultus.stblog.org

Got that one already. Thanks though~!

I certainly appreciate you taking the time. Just an FYI to others, I have that one and Monks and Mermaids, which is quite good also.
 
I asked in a thread specifically for the purpose, but no answer:(

Any Benedictine monks on CAF?

I don’t believe there are, or if so, they are not out in the open. There was a Benedictine Sister posting for a very short time several months ago, but I have not seen her in some time.

My understanding is that there used to be a good number of priests and religious here a long time ago, but that they all left after a time.

Sad 😦

Thanks Jason 🙂
 
Anyone know if a St Joseph’s Guide* exists for the Roman-Benedictine Liturgy of the Hours similar to the guides for the “regular” Liturgy of the Hours? I know that one exists that is Roman-Franciscan, for example.

*it doesn’t have to be St Joseph’s, obviously, as long as it was a day to day guide.

Are you referring to wanting to do the Monastic Diurnal? If so, you can sign up for the Trad Ben yahoo group, or check out this website. saintsshallarise.blogspot.com/
 
Jason,

Sorry that I wasn’t clear:o

Nope, I mean the Liturgy of the Hours.

Let’s use July 12th as an example

The regular Liturgy of the Hours (ie, the one prayed by secular priests) = no Saint listed

The Roman-Franciscan LotH = Sts. John Jones and John Wall

The Roman-Benedictine LotH (assuming one exists) should = St Giovanni Gualberto (valombrosian Benedictines)

Is that clearer? :o

Ah, I understand now. You are looking for the calendar of saints celebrated by the OSB.

This one is for the Mass, but I am not sure about the one for the Divine Office.
osb.org/gen/saints/osbcal.html

If you order the calendar from the Monks at Norica they have all of them on there but I am not sure about another source.
