Prayer to Saint Benedict the African Prayer Card
Saint Benedict, you were venerated for your humility and charity and for your willingness to serve even though you felt unqualified. Preferring to be a simple cook rather than a revered novice master, your holiness attracted those who were hopeless, grief-stricken, and confused. Pray for us that we may serve God and others as you did, with humble faith and untiring love. Amen.
Saint Benedict the African (1526-1589) was a freed slave who became a Franciscan friar in Africa. His body was incorrupt. He is the patron saint of Black Catholics and African Americans and was known for his charity to the poor, his humility, and his abiding faith.
