Br. Barnabas Brownsey died peacefully this morning around 3:40 AM. We were already at Vigils, completing the First Nocturn of Psalms. The community of Holy Cross Abbey and our employees appreciate the responses from all of you as well as the prayers and concern for his good passage from life. Details of the funeral and burial will be posted later.

Blessings to Bro. Barnabas and to all,
