About This Item

This Travel Bug commemorates the 90th Anniversary of the Mount St. Benedict Monastery/Church (1912-2002) in Trinidad & Tobago. It contains a key ring with an image of the monastery and a card with the rule of St. Benedict and his image.

This Benedictine Monastic community is the largest and oldest in the Caribbean. It was established in 1912 by monks fleeing Brazil's attempt to take over their land. Founded on the principles of self sufficiency and hospitality to strangers, the monastery complex encompasses, not only religious buildings, but also a farm, an apiary, a home for the aged, a drug rehabilitation center, a vocational school and a guest house. It also owns about 600 acres, much of it rain forest, which still supplies water and materials for the site.

Rule of St. Benedict:

If you desire true and eternal life, keep your tongue free from vicious talk and your lips from all deceit, turn away from all evil and do good let peace be all your quest and aim. (Ps. 33)

Once you have done this my eyes will be upon you and my ears will listen for your prayers, and even before you ask me, I will say to you: Here I am. (ls. 58)
