− | Established in the 6th Century, the Benedictine Community was an expression of the ancient Orthodox and Catholic Faith of the West. St. Benedict was a Latin Orthodox Saint.
| |
− | | |
− | Due to political changes and exaggerated claims of authority by the Pope at Rome, the Benedictine at Amalfi, Italy who in 925 wanted to retain the Faith, Order and Worship of the traditional Orthodox Fathers were forced to take refuge with their long time friends at MT. Athos. At MT. Athos they established the MONASTERY OF THE VIRGIN OF THE AMALFIANS near Morphonou, a small bay north of the Great Lava.

− | In 933 the young Patriarch Theophylactus of Constantinople established the Monks as a Parachial Entity of the Greek Church. His All Holiness was a devotee of the Latin West and had made many enemies among his contemporaries because of his devotion to Latin Orthodoxy.

| |
− | | |
− | The Papal Crusades that ravaged and raped Constantinople created an anti western attitude in the East. Patriarch John IV Kalecas proved he also was a friend of Latin Orthdoxy by establishing the Monks as an autocephalous community. This, along with other pro west activities forced him from the Patriarchal Throne. The Monks that went to Europe became known as the Athonite Benedictine Fathers or Latin Orthodox Benedictine.
