Historique
Bernard de Aguiar was born in New Jersey in 1926. First a Benedictine, he transferred to Gethsemani and became a Trappist in 1951 where he took the name Sylvanus. After 11 years at the Abbey, he was ordained a priest. Soon after, in 1962, he obtained permission to live an eremitical life away from Gethsemani with Dom Jacques Winandy in Martinique. In 1969, he moved to Hornby Island (between the British Columbia mainland and Vancouver Island) and started a pottery studio called Earthen Vessels. He was laicized in 1974.
