Best Answer

The building of new monasteries in Europe had a direct impact from the allocation of a space where potential converts could be convinced. The presence of monasteries surely attracted attention as well as gave a vantage point for evangelists of the time. But that is the obvious answer - less obvious but just as important, if not more important, was the role of monasteries in perpetuating Christian texts. Monks would transcribe important Christian documents such as The Bible and would keep copies safe in their libraries for posterity. Without the work of monk scribes, the Bible would have been far less prevalent in Europe.
