Tomb of Fr. Chrysostom Schreiner, OSB, in San Salvador, Bahamas
I had the opportunity to visit Fr. Schreiner's grave in August of 2015. As you can see, he has a beautiful spot for his final resting place.
The American Fr. Chrysostom Schreiner OSB, the first Catholic priest permanently assigned to the Bahamas, served primarily at St. Francis Xavier in Nassau. A history enthusiast, he researched Columbus' landing extensively and promoted San Salvador as the correct landing site and he was instrumental in the island's official renaming from Watling's Island in 1925. In retirement, Fr. Chrysostom relocated to San Salvador, where he died on 3 Jan 1928. He was buried the next day. Memorial Masses were celebrated in Nassau; Collegeville, Minnesota (the site of St. John's Abbey, his monastery); and New York. Cardinal Hayes referred to him as the Catholic Apostle to the Bahamas; he was a unique religious presence on the islands.
