Dom Aidan Christian Carr was born on September 14, 1914 in Galveston (Texas – USA).  He entered the Franciscan Order (O.F.M. Conv.) and was ordained a priest in 1945. He entered Mepkin on October 31, 1969 and made solemn profession on May 11, 1972. He served as Superior ad nutum of Mepkin from 1974 to 1977 and as Abbot from 1977 to 1990.  He was Chaplain in Uganda, in the Community of Butende, from 1993 to 1996.  He remains in good health (for a 100 year old) and continues to have a very active mind.
