When I saw the title of this, I was afraid it was going to be one of offensive "Dirty Secrets of Medieval Monks" videos. But you told the story with such respect for the truth and for these men that I'm going to look into the rest of this channel. Have you thought about making a similar show about nuns?

Thank you Deborah! I will put a video about nuns in the Middle Ages on my list for a future video.

I understand that at the time St Benedict was organising male orders in Italy, his sister St Scholastica was doing the same for women.

The same for St. Francis and St. Clare

@@Geoplanetjane Yes, but that was much later. We owe quite a bit to religious orders. The Benedictines gave us the Divine Office/Liturgy of the Hours [at least in something resembling the forms used now, as the use of Psalms etc at specific times of day is even older], The Carmelites gave us the Brown Scapular, the Dominicans gave us the Rosary and the Franciscans gave us the Angelus, the Christmas Crib and Stations of the Cross. It was St Francis himself who brought Stations of the Cross back from the Holy Land, and later Franciscan Friars spread the Devotion throughout Italy, although the form now most used is by St Alphonsus Liguori [founder of the Redemptorist Order, also Italian]. IDK when it became popular outside of Italy.
