24-Year-Old Monk of the Transalpine Redemptorists Presumed Found Dead
The body of the missing monk of the sedevacantist Transalpine Redemptorists appears to have been found. According to Police Scotland, an as yet unidentified body was recovered from the sea near the island of Stronsay on Wednesday morning.
The family of the missing monk has been informed. The cause of death has not yet been established.
The missing monk was the New Zealander Justin Evans, 24. He took the religious name Brother Ignatius Maria.
He disappeared in mid-April from the order’s monastery on Papa Stronsay in Orkney. Police searches involving helicopters and boats had continued for weeks.
The Diocese of Aberdeen declined further comment while police investigations remain ongoing.

Eternal rest grant Justin Evans, O Lord. Let the perpetual light shine upon him. May he rest in peace. Amen...The diocese has nothing to say about this incident (except perhaps pray for him) because as a sedevacantist sect, the Transalpines have severed relations with the diocese and the Vatican.
The waters there are quite rough! It is a difficult place to live. Eternal Rest Grant unto him O Lord! And let perpetual light shine upon him! May the Divine assistance remain with us, and the souls of the Faithful departed rest in peace. I am confident he was "prayed up!"
