Pray and work

In Christian mysticism, the phrase pray and work (or "pray and labor", in Latin ora et labora) refers to the monastic practice of working and praying, generally associated with its use in the Rule of St. Benedict.〔Anselm Grün, Linda M. Maloney (2006). ''Benedict of Nursia'' 2006 ISBN 0-8146-2910-5 page 30〕
Benedict viewed prayer and work as partners, and believed in combining contemplation with action.〔Lonni Collins Pratt, Daniel Homan (2001). ''Benedict's Way: An Ancient Monk's Insights for a Balanced Life'' ISBN 0-8294-1787-7 page 47〕 The phrase expresses the need to balance prayer and work in monastic settings and has been used in many religious communities from the Middle Ages onwards.
Some orders (such as the Cistercians) applied the concept directly to farm work and became an element in the movement towards land reclamation from rot and agricultural development in Western Europe. Other orders such as the Humiliati applied the concept to the production of woolen cloth using wheels in the period prior to the industrial revolution.
