St. Bernard of Clairvaux

St. Bernard of Clairvaux (1090–1153) was a revered abbot, theologian, and Doctor of the Church whose wisdom and spiritual leadership shaped the 12th century. A powerful preacher and reformer, he played a key role in spreading devotion to Our Lady and strengthening the faith across France and Western Europe. His legacy of holiness and guidance continues to inspire the Church today. Each year, we honor his memory on August 20.

St. Bernard, pray for us!
