St. Norbert

St. Norbert was a 12th-century Catholic priest and founder of the Norbertine Order, a religious community dedicated to prayer, study, and service. He emphasized a life of austerity, humility, and collaboration, encouraging his followers to live together and serve others. Norbert promoted reforms within the church and aimed to renew spiritual devotion among his contemporaries. His order grew quickly and spread across Europe, continuing his mission of combining contemplative prayer with active service. Today, Norbertines continue his legacy by living communal, prayerful lives focused on community and service.
