8x10mm Black Wood St. Benedict Rosary | Blue Enamel Center | Silver Ox
Return & Refund Policy
We want you to be completely satisfied with your purchase.
Read our full Return & Refund Policy →Built for daily prayer and durable enough to last, this 8x10mm black wood St. Benedict rosary is a serious sacramental for anyone committed to the Rosary devotion. The oversized oval beads give each decade a satisfying, tactile weight, while the silver oxidized crucifix and blue enamel St. Benedict center medal make this rosary as visually striking as it is spiritually purposeful. If you are looking for catholic religious goods to buy that combine devotion to Our Lady with the powerful protection of St. Benedict, this rosary delivers both in a single, well-made piece. The St. Benedict Our Father beads anchor each set of decades with a distinct, larger bead that keeps your place in prayer without counting.
St. Benedict of Nursia (480–547 A.D.) is one of the most venerated saints in the Catholic Church and the patron of Europe, students, and those seeking protection against evil. The St. Benedict medal — featured here on the center medal and Our Father beads — carries the Vade Retro Satana inscription, a Latin exorcism formula meaning "Begone, Satan," and has been used as a sacramental of protection since at least the 11th century. Pope Leo IX formally approved the medal in 1051, and its use has been encouraged by numerous popes since. Praying the Rosary with a St. Benedict rosary unites two of the most powerful Catholic devotions: the Marian prayer of the Rosary, which meditates on the mysteries of Christ's life, and the intercessory protection of St. Benedict. The blue enamel center medal on this rosary depicts Our Lady, connecting the beads visually and spiritually to the Blessed Virgin Mary, under whose patronage the Rosary is prayed.

It is equally appropriate for Father's Day, a deployment send-off, or as a housewarming gift for a Catholic home. Pair it with a rosary case to protect the beads between prayer sessions, or add a rosary card so the recipient has the prayers in hand. For a complete sacramental gift, consider including it as part of a Confirmation gift set. This rosary arrives on a hang card, ready to present.
St. Benedict and the Rosary — Two Devotions, One Prayer Tool
The St. Benedict medal is among the most recognized sacramentals in the Catholic tradition. Its origins trace to a 1647 discovery at Metten Abbey in Bavaria, where a painting depicted St. Benedict holding the medal and cross. The full text of the medal — including the Vade Retro Satana exorcism prayer — was not decoded until 1742, when a manuscript at Metten explained each letter of the medal's inscription. The medal was formally blessed and approved for use by Pope Leo IX in 1051, making it one of the oldest continuously used sacramentals in the Church. Catholics carry and wear the St. Benedict medal as a sign of trust in God's protection and St. Benedict's intercession against evil, illness, and temptation.
Combining the St. Benedict medal with a Rosary rosary creates a devotional object that serves two purposes simultaneously. The Rosary itself — formally structured around 20 mysteries meditating on the lives of Jesus and Mary — has been called by Saint John Paul II "a compendium of the Gospel." Praying the Rosary with a St. Benedict rosary means each Our Father bead carries the saint's image as a reminder of his intercession, while the blue enamel center keeps the focus on Our Lady. For Catholics seeking catholic religious goods that carry genuine spiritual depth, this rosary is a purposeful choice rather than a decorative one.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size are the beads on this St. Benedict rosary?
The beads on this rosary measure 8x10mm and are oval-shaped black wood. That larger oval size gives each bead a solid, substantial feel that makes it easy to move through the decades during prayer, especially for those with larger hands or arthritis.

What is the significance of the St. Benedict medal on this rosary?
The St. Benedict medal is one of the oldest and most widely used sacramentals in the Catholic Church, formally approved by Pope Leo IX in 1051. It bears the Vade Retro Satana inscription, a Latin exorcism prayer meaning 'Begone, Satan,' and is carried by Catholics as a sign of trust in God's protection and St. Benedict's intercession. On this rosary, the St. Benedict image appears on both the center medal and the Our Father beads, making his protective intercession a constant presence throughout the prayer. The blue enamel center medal also honors Our Lady, connecting the rosary to the Marian devotion at the heart of the Rosary prayer.
Is this rosary a good gift for Confirmation or First Communion?
Yes, this St. Benedict rosary is an excellent gift for Confirmation, First Communion, or RCIA completion. The St. Benedict medal carries deep Catholic meaning around protection and perseverance in faith, which makes it especially fitting for a young person entering a new stage of their Catholic life. It also works well as a deployment gift, a Father's Day gift, or a meaningful addition to a Catholic home.
Can a priest bless this rosary?
Yes, any Catholic priest can bless this rosary. A blessed rosary becomes a sacramental, meaning it is set apart for sacred use and can serve as an occasion of grace for the person who prays with it. Simply bring the rosary to your parish priest and ask for a blessing — most priests are happy to bless sacramentals for the faithful.
Does this rosary come in a gift box, and how long does shipping take?
This rosary comes on a hang card rather than in a gift box, making it easy to display or present as a gift. Orders typically ship within 1 to 2 business days, and free shipping applies to all U.S. orders over $40. For questions about your order, call 1-800-741-7754 or email sales@rosarycard.net.
