Faith at St. Benedict

“Let them put Christ before all else; and may He lead us all to everlasting life.”
— Rule of Saint Benedict

At St. Benedict, our Catholic faith is at the heart of everything we do. Each day begins and ends with prayer, includes daily Religion class, and is rooted in Scripture, the lives of the Saints, and the teachings of the Church. Our week is crowned by the celebration of Holy Mass, the source and summit of our Catholic life.

We seek to form a strong Catholic identity in our students by grounding all instruction in the magisterial teachings and traditions of the Church. Faith is not an added subject, but the very atmosphere in which our school lives and breathes.

Our goal is to create a true Catholic culture—one in which classrooms, hallways, and activities reflect the presence of Christ. Students are surrounded by signs of our faith—religious images, statues, and prayer opportunities—that lift their minds and hearts to God.

We teach that the human condition can only be fully understood through the lens of the Fall of Man and the saving work of Jesus Christ. In this way, we help students grow in wisdom and holiness, preparing them not just for academic success, but for eternal life with Him.
