What is the St. Benedict medal?

The Medal of St. Benedict, as we know it today,
is the Jubilee medal that was first struck in 1880 by
the Archabbey of Monte Cassino to commemorate the
14th centenary anniversary of St. Benedict’s birth.

St. Benedict was one of the greatest saints
of all time. He was the founder of the
Benedictine Order, and is called the
Father of Western monasticism.

Because St. Benedict is the patron saint
against many forms of diabolical influence—
including witchcraft, poison, disease, and
temptation—his medal has the power to protect
those who use it properly, as a sacramental,
from various evils and temptations.

Each of the letters engraved on the front
and back of the medal stand for
Latin prayers of exorcism.

When you get one, don't forget to ask
your parish priest to bless it for you!

What do the symbols on the medal mean?

On the front of the medal, St. Benedict can be
seen holding a cross in his right hand and the
Rule he wrote for his monks in his left hand.

To the right there is an image of a poisoned cup
which he was once given by some of his own monks,
who had turned aginst him: when he made the
Sign of the Cross over it, it shattered.

On the other side of Benedict, a raven can be seen.
This is because an enemy once sent him poisoned
bread; but God sent a raven to fly off with it,
thereby protecting Benedict from harm.
