5. The texts of two Retreats given by Father Cyprian when a monk at Mount Saint Bernard have been published by Father Emeka Nwosu, the indefatigable promoter of Father Tansi’s Cause.
The first Retreat was given to his old parishioner at Dunukofia, recently made Bishop of the newly created Diocese of Port Harcourt, the fate Rt. Rev. Bishop Okoye. The second was the revised version of the Retreat given to four Nigerian nuns on holiday near the monastery. They were all students at Coloma College in the south of England. Both Retreats were published by The Postulation For The Cause of Father Tansi, Archdiocesan Secretariate, Onitsha, Nigeria. The first was called The Royal Way of the Cross (Veritas Press Col, Onitsha). The second: Irrational Love (Vicalex Nigeria, Ltd.) (No dates for either publication.)
Fr. Nwosu regularly publishes through Veritas Press a pamphlet or bulletin giving a list of favours received in answer to prayers to the Servant of God. Each edition is called: Father Cyprian Tansi: Life of Evangelical Witness. Notable amongst these pamphlets are two: January 20th 1986 Inauguration of the Archdiocesan Tribunal for the Cause of Cyprian Michael Iwene Tansi, priest and Cistercian monk and the celebration of the 22nd Anniversary of his death at the Cathedral, Onitsha, 20th January 1986. The second is the: Translation of the Remains of the Servant of God, Father Cyprian Michael Iwene Tansi: OCSO. Pontifical Concelebrated Requiem Mass and Re-interment at Holy Trinity Cathedral, Onitsha, Tuesday 23rd September 1986. (Extended use of Igbo is a pleasing feature of the previous Vigil Masses at Enugu, Dunukofia, Aguleri and Onitsha, as well as at the Solemn Mass of Re-interment at Onitsha. All are printed in this pamphlet.)
