The Order of St. Augustine (Augustinians) is an order of brothers - many of whom are priests - within the Catholic Church. The Order was founded in two successive stages (1244 and 1256) when groups of religious living in Tuscany were united to form the Order under the rule and spiritual inspiration of St. Augustine. Today there are over 2,700 Augustinians serving in around 40 countries in the various continents. We are from the Province of England and Scotland.
