Who We Are
Community, interiority, study, and love. We live the Augustinian charism — hearts restless for God, made one in common life, and spent on the least of these (Mt 25:40). Love proven, not merely professed.
Our pastor is an ordained priest of the Old Catholic Church and a Baptist minister. He has worked supporting SOF on Ft. Bragg, as a consultant to industry giants like Humana, taught at universities including National Defense University, but has always felt a calling to priesthood and religious life and is now, with the support of Bishop Edmund Cass, realizing his calling. His brokenness healed, his long-anticipated ordination, made real through love. Just like our patron was made whole and found his rest in God through love proven.
If love can mend Augustine, it can mend you.
