Fr. Werenfried van Straaten, O. Praem. [R.I.P.]

Fr. Werenfried of Aid to the Church in Need died last Friday, 31 January as you've probably heard. Gerard Serafin has reprinted some lovely tributes to him on his blog here. None that I saw mention that although he was originally a canon of the Tongerlo Abbey [the link is in Flemish, but the pictures are worth the visit] in recent years he had transferred to St. Michael's Abbey in Orange, California and died a member of that community.

God rest his soul.
