Blessed’s Biography
Blessed Fulk of Montdidier was a Premonstratensian canon and elected as the second prior of the Saint-Jean Monastery in Amiens, France, in 1130. Fulk served as head of his house for the remaining 26 years. In 1135, they elevated the house to an abbey and Fulk became its abbot. During his governorship, the house attracted so many brothers they had to outgrow their structures and add another place outside the city. The brethren who looked for peace used the other house. He died in 1157 of natural causes.
