A new collection of personal letters, translated and edited by Buckfast Abbey archivist Steve Roach, offers an intimate look at the life and spiritual resilience of Abbot Anscar Vonier OSB.

Dom Geraldo González y Lima OSB, long-serving treasurer of the Benedictine Confederation in Rome, has been elected the fourth Abbot of São Geraldo Abbey in São Paulo, Brazil, returning to his home community.

Roman institutions are accustomed to change, and Sant’Anselmo is currently experiencing a significant amount of it. Our bursar/treasurer is being replaced, and the membership of the Abbot Primate’s Finance Commission is also being renewed.
