Mission: Religious, monastic, Christian communities seeking God according to the Rule of Saint Benedict.
From www.ic.org/directory/order-of-saint-benedict/:
The international Benedictine monastic order of sisters and brothers looks to Saint Benedict of Nursia, Italy, (480-547), the Patriarch of Western Monasticism, as its founder and inspiration. In the sixth century A.D., he wrote what we know as the Rule of Benedict or Regula Benedicti that continues to inspire and direct authentic Benedictine communities.
