Saints celebrated on the 6th of April
HENRY, RELIGIOUS
Henry (Henricus) was a Cistercian monk from Villers, is referred to as "blessed" by Henriquez* and Bucelin*, and is called "saint" by Sauffajus*. The Bollandists*, list him among the Praetermissi because they stated to have no proof of his public veneration. However, in 1599, under the abbot Henricus Horion, Henry's relics were raised - a circumstance which does suggest his veneration.
