A New
Prior
at Bellaigue
4-26-2011
The Benedictine monastery of
Notre-Dame de Bellaigue (France) has a new
prior in the person of Dom Placide, who was elected on April
9th during the conventual chapter, presided over by Bishop
Alfonso de Galarreta of the SSPX.
Dom Placide succeeds Dom Angelo, the first prior of the
monastic foundation at Santa Cruz in Brazil, which was founded
in 1988 from the abbey of Ste-Madeleine du Barroux. Dom Angelo
died on March 9, 2008.
During the interim, Fr. Matthew has served as the priory for
the past three years.
