Norbert

Saint Norbert was a German nobleman who founded the Premonstratensian Order (Norbertines) around 1120. After a dramatic conversion experience during a lightning storm, he gave up his comfortable life, was ordained a priest, and became a wandering preacher. He later became Archbishop of Magdeburg and was known for his devotion to the Eucharist.
