A world without Augustinians? NO WAY!

What drew me to the Augustinians was the community that Fr. John Deary, O.S.A., developed and sustained at my parish, St. Katherine Drexel in Cape Coral, Florida. Fr. Deary’s compassion and commitment changed my perspective on my religion and spirituality. I knew I had to do something to make sure that the Augustinians are able to fulfill their mission into the future. I contribute to the Augustinian Fund annually and, in addition, I decided to plan for the future by naming the Augustinians in my will. I want to ensure that the friars have the resources they need today and beyond my lifetime to continue their good work which has enriched our lives significantly.

Although the Augustinians no longer have a physical presence in Cape Coral, I stay connected with them and Fr. Deary through my involvement as an Augustinian Secular where I continue to follow Christ in the Augustinian spirituality.

Please consider naming the Augustinians in your will. The world will be a much better place with more Augustinians in it.
