The Rule of Love – A Reflection Inspired by the Wisdom of St. Benedict

In the Benedictine tradition, love is lived in the quiet faithfulness of daily life—through listening, humility, patience, and care for one another. The Rule of Love invites us to reflect on how love guides our words, our actions, and the way we live in community.

May this video reflection encourage you to pause, listen with the ear of your heart, and notice the gentle ways God’s love is at work in your life.

If this reflection has touched your heart, we invite you to learn more about the Benedictine way of life at St. Scholastica Monastery. The Benedictine tradition welcomes many paths of connection—through prayer, friendship, service, and community. Some join us as volunteers, associates, or oblates; others feel called to explore the possibility of religious life. However God may be stirring in your heart, know that you are always welcome here as we seek together to live the Gospel in a spirit of prayer, hospitality, and love.

“Our humanity comes to its fullest bloom in giving. We become beautiful people when we give whatever we can give: a smile, a handshake, a kiss, an embrace, a word of love, a present, a part of our life...all of our life.”
