Aurelius Aloysius Stehle, OSB (April 30, 1877 - February 12, 1930) was an American Catholic Benedictine priest and fourth archabbot of St. Vincent Archabbey in Latrobe, Pennsylvania.
Upon graduating, Aloysius decided to enter St. Vincent Archabbey, and made his first vows on 11 July 1893, taking the religious name Aurelius.
[3] From shortly after his ordination in 1899 to his election as coadjutor abbot in 1918, Stehle served as a seminary professor, teaching Greek, English, Sacred Scripture, Latin, and Liturgy.
[6] During Stehle's leadership of St. Vincent Seminary as vice-rector in 1911, the institution came to be known as a center of doctrinal orthodoxy and conservatism, especially in the years following the condemnation of modernism by Pius X in Pascendi Dominici gregis.
[4] In 1924, Pope Pius XI requested that the American-Cassinese Congregation establish an educational apostolate in China, and Aurelius responded, sending monastics to found what would become Fu Jen Catholic University.
