St. Boniface was a \u201ctrue son of St. Benedict,\u201d Pope Benedict XVI wrote<\/a>. He said Boniface\u2019s physical and scholarly toil exemplified an expanded version of the Benedictine motto, not just ora et labora, <\/em>but \u201cprayer and labour (manual and intellectual), pen and plough.\u201d<\/p>\n

St. Elizabeth Ann Seton was also a practitioner of \u201celbow grease and ink\u201d \u2014 a true daughter of the Vincentian spirituality that formed her own congregation of religious sisters, a fidelity that, Pope Leo XIV says<\/a>, \u201copened doors for girls, migrants and the marginalized.\u201d<\/p>\n

Boniface was the son of island tribes who got his decisive direction from Rome.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Around 675 AD. Boniface, who was baptized Winfrid, was born to an Anglo-Saxon family in what would become England\u2019s southern section, Wessex.<\/p>\n

At that time, the island was a land of Germanic tribes who had been evangelized less than a century earlier by the Benedictines at the command of Pope Gregory the Great. Winfrid got to know the Benedictines well, and entered the order. Their mission of education suited his scholarly intellect.<\/p>\n

At his ordination, in 705 at age 30, Boniface said: \u201cI profess integrally the purity of the holy Catholic faith and with the help of God I desire to remain in the unity of this faith, in which there is no doubt that the salvation of Christians lies.\u201d<\/p>\n

He embarked on an unsuccessful missionary trip to what is now northern Germany and the Netherlands, and then returned home. When he was finally able to rejoin the missions, he met with the pope at the time, Gregory II, who was so impressed with the monk that he renamed him bona facere <\/em>(to do good), or Boniface.<\/p>\n

In 722, Gregory consecrated him as a missionary bishop \u2014 Rome\u2019s front-line commander in places as wide-ranging as Bavaria, Thuringia, and Hesse and as far-flung as Frisia.<\/p>\n

He lived in a time when the culture of Europe on the continent had collapsed, however. The Western Roman empire fell in 476, and large swaths of the empire had relapsed into paganism. In the Catholic places there was little uniformity of worship or communication with Rome.<\/p>\n

The times demanded that Boniface do mighty works with his pen. So he did.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Boniface embraced Rome\u2019s primacy and helped re-establish inroads between Rome and the tribal lands that had slipped from communion. That meant, for one thing, teaching Latin. Boniface taught Latin grammar and would write Latin prose works of scholarship as well as poetry. His work Ars grammatica <\/em>spread the Latin language to connect the churches to the Church and his Ars metrica<\/em> taught Latin poetry. He shared his own Latin poems and sermons.<\/p>\n

But Boniface evangelized directly through letters. For example, in 723 he shared with another bishop his method of evangelizing pagans. Questions \u201cshould be put to them, not in an offensive and irritating way, but calmly, with great moderation,\u201d he said. For example:<\/p>\n

\u201cOnce they admit their gods have a beginning, you should ask them whether the universe had a beginning \u2026 For before there was a universe, there was no place for the gods to live,\u201d he wrote. \u201cBut if they answer that the universe has no beginning \u2026 simply ask them Who ruled the universe, then? How did the gods come to rule the universe, if it existed before them? Where did the first<\/em> gods and goddesses come from?\u201d<\/p>\n

His Socratic approach went on to establish Christian truths.<\/p>\n

But the plough \u2014 and the axe \u2014 marked his work too.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Boniface knew how to discuss the faith with pagans, because he wasn\u2019t an ivory tower academic \u2014 he was a tireless builder, creating new male and female monasteries that became educational centers important to the future of the faith in Europe.<\/p>\n

And the two iconic events of his life were also acts of brawn, not brains: the death of an ancient tree and his own martyrdom.<\/p>\n

Boniface\u2019s most famous act was to fell a huge oak associated with the god Thor in Geismar in central Germany. Such trees were places of sacrifice, and it was said that infants were killed there to keep Thor happy. Boniface announced his intention to fell the tree with his axe, and then did so in front of watching, frightened pagans, who expected him to be struck dead by lightning at any moment.<\/p>\n

The people were astonished when the tree fell apart in four pieces, and Boniface himself was unharmed by Thor. A later tradition links this story to the Christmas tree \u2014 a tree that symbolizes God\u2019s pleasure in the birth of an infant, not the death of infants to please a god.<\/p>\n

The axe is part of Boniface\u2019s iconography \u2014 but so is a Gospel book pierced by a sword, representing his martyrdom. He was martyred after returning, when he was almost 80, to northern Germany, the first place he tried, and failed, to win for Christ as a young man.<\/p>\n

While he was beginning Mass on June 5, 754, he was assaulted by a band of pagans. An account of his martyrdom says that his Gospel book was pierced by a sword and his last words were recorded as: \u201cHere is the long awaited day, the time of our end has now come; courage in the Lord!\u201d<\/p>\n

Our own recent German Pope, Benedict XVI, said he was personally grateful for what St. Boniface did for his native land:<\/p>\n

\u201cHis ardent zeal for the Gospel never fails to impress me. At the age of 41 he left a beautiful and fruitful monastic life, the life of a monk and teacher, in order to proclaim the Gospel to the simple, to barbarians. \u2026 He was so passionate about the word of God that he felt the urgent need and duty to communicate it to others, even at his own personal risk.\u201d<\/p>\n

Of course, another child of England who found her vocation in Italy prayed and worked to spread the Gospel.<\/strong><\/p>\n

What Boniface did in Germany, spreading institutions rooted in Christ and connected to Rome, educational pioneers did in America. Pope Benedict also said that \u201cTowering figures, like Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton and other founders and foundresses, with great tenacity and foresight, laid the foundations of what is today a remarkable network of parochial schools contributing to the spiritual well-being of the Church and the nation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mother Seton and St. Boniface both had the same Catholic impulse \u2014 to create order where there is disorder and clear confusion where there is confusion, and to connect their beloved people directly to Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n
