About the medal: The Saint Benedict medal has no particular intrinsic power in itself. The use of any religious article is intended as a means of reminding one of God and of inspiring a willingness and desire to serve God and neighbor. The medal represents a prayer on the part of the user to invoke God’s blessing and protection through the intercession of St. Benedict. There are no special rules prescribed for its use. Placing this decal on you car, front door, water bottle, etc. is a reminder of that devotion.
