"Before all else, live together in harmony, being of one mind and one heart on the way to God." -Rule of St. Augustine 🕊️🔥

What a historic and grace-filled celebration for our Province!While we honored the worldwide Solemnity of our Holy Father, St. Augustine on August 28, the California Province was also blessed with an incredible milestone:

Br. Tony, O.S.A. made his Solemn Profession to the Order of St. Augustine! 🙌📝

By pronouncing his permanent, lifelong vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience, Br. Tony has fully anchored his heart to the service of God and His people within our community. He is living out the exact vision St. Augustine had centuries ago, pursuing the ultimate Truth side-by-side with his brothers.

We are so grateful for Br. Tony’s "Yes" and his continued ministry in our California schools, parishes, and communities. As we celebrate this beautiful milestone, we also ask for your continued support for all of our Augustinians in Formation. Nurturing a vocation requires years of academic, spiritual, and pastoral preparation. Your ongoing prayers and donations ensure our future friars are fully equipped to serve.

Please keep Br. Tony and all of our novices and theologians in your daily prayers!

Join us in sending an abundance of blessings and congratulations to Br. Tony in the comments below! 👇💬
Welcome to lifelong brotherhood, Br. Tony!

Happy Fourth of July! 🇺🇸

Today, as we celebrate our nation’s independence, we give thanks for the blessings of freedom, faith, and community.

In the spirit of St. Augustine, may our freedom always lead us toward truth, unity, and love of neighbor. May we seek not only the good of ourselves, but the common good of all God’s people.

Let us pray for our country, for peace in our communities, and for hearts that remain restless until they rest in God.

St. Augustine, pray for us.

A Restless Heart Learns Mercy

In today’s Gospel, Jesus reminds us: before we judge another, we must first look honestly within our own hearts.

St. Augustine knew this well. His life teaches us that conversion begins not by pointing outward, but by allowing God to heal what is restless, wounded, and proud within us.

“You have made us for Yourself, O Lord, and our hearts are restless until they rest in You.” — St. Augustine

Today, we also remember Sts. John Fisher and Thomas More, two courageous witnesses who remained faithful to Christ and His Church, even at great personal cost.

May their witness strengthen us to live with humility, courage, and mercy.

St. Augustine, pray for us.
Sts. John Fisher and Thomas More, pray for us.

An Appeal from one of our parishioners:

🏛️ Support Our Augustinian Priests Retreat Donation Appeal 🏛️

Every day, our Augustinian priests walk with us through our highest joys and deepest sorrows. But as we look at the increasing demands in our families, it’s easy to see that the harvest is rich but the laborers seem so few. That is why it is so critical that we help our priests plan their recovery.

This upcoming retreat is a vital space for them to rest, pray, and renew their strength so they can continue their essential ministry. Because our priests dedicate their lives to service, we rely on your generosity to cover their retreat costs, including lodging and meals.

How You Can Help:
Donate: Click the link below to sponsor a priest or make a general donation.

Pray: Keep our priests in your prayers during this time of spiritual renewal.

Thank you for caring for the laborers who care for us.

June is the Month of the Sacred Heart of Jesus! ❤️🕊️

As an Augustinian community, this month calls us to live out our core charism: to be of one heart and one mind on our journey toward God. St. Augustine teaches us that the unity of our hearts is a reflection of Christ's love, and this June, we expand that vision to our entire country.

We invite you to participate in the National Consecration of the United States to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Let us join our voices as one community, praying for healing, unity, and a renewed respect for human dignity across our land:

"Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, we consecrate our nation to Your Divine Heart today. Take our country, our leaders, and our people into Your care. Heal our divisions, shield the vulnerable, and help us live out the true meaning of liberty and justice for all. Sacred Heart of Jesus, we place all our trust in You. Amen." 🙏🇺🇸

How to Participate:
Join the Prayer: Pray for our nation's renewal throughout June.
Adoration: Participate in the 250 hours of Eucharistic Adoration initiative.
Learn More: Find novena resources and official guides at usccb.org/weholdthesetruths.

Pentecost Sunday | Come, Holy Spirit 🔥
Today, the Church rejoices in the gift of the Holy Spirit, who descended upon the Apostles and filled them with courage, wisdom, and fire for the mission of the Gospel.

Pentecost reminds us that the Spirit does not gather us as isolated individuals, but forms us into a community, “one mind and one heart on the way to God.” The same Spirit who set the early Church aflame continues to call us to live in truth, charity, and unity.

On this feast day, we pray the beautiful words attributed to St. Augustine:
🕊️ The Prayer of St. Augustine
"Breathe in me, O Holy Spirit, that my thoughts may all be holy.
Act in me, O Holy Spirit, that my work, too, may be holy.
Draw my heart, O Holy Spirit, that I love but what is holy.
Strengthen me, O Holy Spirit, to defend all that is holy.
Guard me, then, O Holy Spirit, that I always may be holy. Amen."

Come, Holy Spirit. Kindle in us the fire of your love.
