Benedictine abbots elect head of Conception Abbey abbot primate

Abbot Gregory Polan, the new leader of the confederation of Benedictine monasteries, is pictured at St. Anselm Abbey in Rome Sept. 13. Abbots and priors from Benedictine men's communities around the world elected Abbot Polan of Conception Abbey in Missouri to be abbot primate.

ROME – A room with a view of the dome of St. Peter's Basilica from a monastery atop the Aventine Hill is very nice, but Abbot Gregory Polan knows he will miss his brother monks at Conception Abbey in Missouri very, very much.
