BENEDICTINE NUNS OF THE PERPETUAL ADORATION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT belong to the great family of Benedictine Orders, founded in the 6th century by Saint Benedict of Nursia, Patriarch of Western monks and now the Patron of Europe. The cradle of the Order was Subiaco, then Monte Cassino in Italy, near Rome. Patron of the female branch of the order is Saint Scholastica, sister of Saint Benedict.

Św. Benedykt

The BENEDICTINE ORDER refers to the tradition of the earliest monachism thanks to its Rule, which adapts it to the living conditions of the monks in the West. The Rule written in the 6th century by St. Benedict – the faithful echo of the Gospel – thanks to its width, moderation and Christian humanism centered on the Person of Christ (“prefer nothing whatever to Christ”) has created a framework for religious life that lasted fourteen centuries, easily adapting to the different conditions of time and place.
