Let us go on until morning talking about the delights of the spiritual life. ~Saint Scholastica to her twin brother Saint Benedict of Nursia February 10 is the feast of St. Scholastica St. Scholastica was the twin of St. Benedict and she founded a woman's religious community near his monastery in Monte Casino. They would meet once a year to discuss spiritual matters. Their last day together was spend in prayer and conversation. St. Scholastica sensed her death was close at hand and asked St. Benedict to stay with her until the next day. St. Benedict refused the request and St. Scholastica asked God to cause her brother stay. A severe storm then broke out, preventing St. Benedict from leaving, he then said, “God forgive you, Sister. What have you done?” St. Scholastica replied, “I asked a favor of you and you refused. I asked it of God and he granted it.” Brother and sister parted the next morning after their long discussion. Three days later, St. Scholastica died. St. Scholastica - Pray for us!
