Okay kiddo, so you know how some people wear really cool necklaces or bracelets with symbols on them? Well, one of those symbols is called the Saint Benedict medal!
It’s a medal that has a picture of Saint Benedict on one side and some words and symbols on the other. Saint Benedict was a very special monk who lived a long time ago and did lots of good things for people.
The medal is made to remind us of his good deeds and to keep us safe and protected. The words and symbols on the medal are there to help us remember to be good and kind like Saint Benedict, and to ask for his help when we need it.
So some people wear the Saint Benedict medal as a way to show that they believe in being good and helping others, and they believe that Saint Benedict can help protect them.
