In silent remembrance of Father Wolfgang Fischer-Felgitsch OSB<\/h5>\n

 <\/p>\n

With deep sorrow and firm faith in the Resurrection, we bid farewell to our dear brother, Father Wolfgang, whom God called home on 31 October 2026.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

His life was characterised by a deep faith, his special devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary and his strong attachment to the Church. He spent many years working in Rome, which became a second home to him, before returning to Styria to serve as a pastor.<\/p>\n

With the passing of Father Wolfgang, we have lost a much-loved brother who, despite serious health challenges, remained true to his faith and his connection to the Benedictine community.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201eGod is our refuge and strength, a ever-present help in times of trouble.\u201c<\/p>\n

In gratitude for his life and work, we entrust him to God\u2019s infinite love and mercy.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Rest in peace, dear Father Wolfgang. May the Lord grant you eternal joy and His peace.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Abbot and the Monastic Community of Admont Benedictine Abbey<\/em><\/p>\n
