N. A 68-1/2004 DECREE The Order of Augustinian Recollects, whose generalate is located in Rome, in its 54th General Chapter, has authorized, the adapted and revised texts of the Constitutions, already confirmed by the Apostolic See on 13th November, 1982 (Prot. A. 68-1/81). The superior general has presented to this Dicastery the new text, requesting its approval.

This Dicastery expresses its best wishes that the Order may continue to grow in conformity with its charism and and reaffirming its Augustinian Recollect identity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary. Vatican, 31st May, 2011 Feast of the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary. ✠ João Braz de Aviz Prefect ✠ Joseph W. Tobin, C.Ss.R. Archbishop Secretary ORDO AUGUSTINIANORUM RECOLLECTORUM GENERALATUS Prot.1-3/11.4 DECREE PROMULGATION OF THE OFFICIAL TEXT OF THE CONSTITUTIONS May the Lord grant that you observe all these precepts with love, as lovers of spiritual beauty …, not as slaves under the law, but as free men under grace. (Rule 8, 1) Beloved brothers: On May 31st of this year, the feast of the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Congregation for Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic Life approved the text of our Constitutions, revised and adapted by the General Chapter of 2010. The approval of this constitutional text is the culmination of a process of revision and updating that began in the General Chapter of 2004. All the religious, secretariats, and institutes of the Order were invited to participate by contributing their suggestions. Several commissions were appointed to promote the study and drafting of the constitutional text, materials were prepared for retreats, and workshops and retreats on the Constitutions were organized. The General Chapter of 2010 was provided with a working document that facilitated its task of updating and adapting the Constitutions and the Additional Code. The Constitutions had already been renewed according to the spirit of the Second Vatican Council and the charism of the Order in the General Chapter of 1974. The General Chapter of 1980 ratified the texts of the Constitutions and of the Additional Code without significant modifications. Two years later, in 1982, the Congregation of Religious and Secular Institutes (Prot. N.A.68-1/81) definitively approved the new Constitutions, and that same year the Prior General promulgated the official texts of the Constitutions and of the Additional Code. A new edition was published in 1987, incorporating some significant changes made by the General Chapter of 1986. This edition, with slight modifications, has remained in force until the present. Our Constitutions, approved by the Church, are a renewed expression of the Augustinian Recollect charism. From the life and communion of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit emerge the life and mission of the Church and of the Order.1 The charism of Saint Augustine, lived anew in the origins of the Recollection and moulded into shape in the Forma de Vivir, is transmitted to others as an experience of the Spirit to be constantly lived, protected, deepened, and developed by those who desire to 1 Cf. Vita Consecrata, 36. follow Christ radically and continue his ecclesial mission. 2 The contemplative, communitarian, and apostolic character of the Order, expressed in the Constitutions, is our way to union with Christ, which permits us to grow in holiness and to offer to the Church the ever new vitality that we receive from the Spirit. The new constitutional text, enriched with references to Holy Scripture, to Saint Augustine, to the Forma de Vivir, and to the Magisterium of the Church, is offered to us as “an ever surging and unquenchable fountain of enlightening inspiration for our spiritual and community life”3 and for our mission. It must therefore be the basic textbook for our initial and continuous formation. We can refer to it for ways to discern the will of the Lord in the face of the numerous problems and pressures that at times seem to compromise our consecrated life, and also to bring to fruition new projects of evangelization, seeking at every moment the communion of the Order and the Church and service to all our brothers.4 The Additional Code is printed within the Constitutions themselves in italic type, with one consecutive enumeration. Both the Constitutions and the Additional Code have the same force of law for everyone, even though they are different juridical texts. Finally, in virtue of this letter and by the authority of my office, and with the consent of the General Council, we hereby promulgate the official text of the Constitutions and of the Additional Code in English, revised and brought up to date by the 54th General Chapter, and with the modifications inserted at the request of the Holy See, and we order that they become effective immediately throughout the Order. Issued in Rome, August 28th, 2011, the solemnity of our Father Saint Augustine. Fr. Miguel Miró Miró Prior General Fr. Sergio Camarena Lara Secretary General 2 Cf. Constitutions nº 2. 3 FR.

  • Education in the Augustinian Tradition
    MISSION AND MINISTRY AT VILLANOVA UNIVERSITY Education in the Augustinian Tradition s both Catholic and Augustinian, Villanova University pursues academic excellence, promotes a vision of the common good and Acelebrates the sacramental character of all creation with respect and reverence. We search for truth with openness to ultimate meaning and value through the lens of Christian faith and engagement with all disciplines in the liberal arts tradition. Through innovative academic course work and pastoral ministry, we express a “special concern for the poor, compassion for the suffering, regard for the value of life and dedication to social justice and human rights.” (Augustinian Ministry of Higher Education, 1996) Heart of the Matter is an annual publication of the Office for Mission & Ministry. It hopes to show the centrality of Villanova’s Augustinian and Catholic identity and its unique contribution to American Catholic higher education. The cover image, a mural by Edward Ruscil, which hangs in the St. Augustine Center for the Liberal Arts, is an especially appropriate illustration for much of the content in this issue. Augustine, who taught not only through sermons and letters but in the classroom as well, was a Master teacher, whose distinctive pedagogy remains relevant for us today. We are especially indebted to Noël Dolan, Michael Tomko, Suzanne Toton, Chris Janosik, and guest author Hugh O’Donnell , who contributed content for this issue. Our hope is that this magazine and their efforts will provide insight into the heart of Villanova University and inspire not only personal growth but participation in and fulfillment of our Augustinian mission.

  • The Life of a Witness for the Love of Christ: a Story of the First Japanese Person to Be Ordained a Priest in the Order of Saint Augustine
    AX211 Thomas Jihyoe PDF This page presents an article of 3,500 words especially written in February 2006 by the regional superior of the Augustinian Vicariate of the Japanese Martyrs. The Life of a Witness for the Love of Christ: a story of the first Japanese person to be ordained a priest in the Order of Saint Augustine. By Thomas Masaki Imada O.S.A., Fukuoka, Japan. When the beloved late Holy Father, John Paul II, came to Japan in February of 1981, Nagasaki was his last leg before he left the country. While there, he visited a small hill (“I came here as a pilgrim” was his very word) overlooking the railroad terminal and the port of Nagasaki. Nishizaka Hill as it is called is always associated with the well-known story of the 26 Martyrs of Nagasaki or Saint Paul Miki and his Companions as they are known in the universal calendar of the Church, who died there on February 5th, 1597. However, on that same hill, there were countless others who died for the Faith. One of them was our own Father Thomas Jihyoe or Father Thomas of Saint Augustine, the first Japanese to be ordained a priest in the Order of Saint Augustine, who died for the love of Christ on November 6th, 1637. Father Thomas Jihyoe was and is better-known in Nagasaki as “Kintsuba” Jihei or Jihyoe; “Kintsuba” literally means “golden sword-guard” because he is said to have often carried a sword with a golden sword-guard engraved with a cross. Nothing much has been written about him and few of his words have ever been recorded.

For He departed, and behold, He is here.” -St Augustine, Confessions, IV, 12 FROM THE PROVINCIAL Dear Friends I was pleased to hear that the recently expanded and enhanced format of The Augustinian has been appreciated by many of our readers. This issue continues to cover the diversity among the ministries and associations connected with the Augustinians. The chance to learn of the great initiatives that are taking place in various ways is good for all of us. Thanks to all who have contributed to this issue and thanks to the team responsible for the production and distribution. This issue is due to appear on the Sunday which is Good Shepherd Sunday (World Day of Prayer for Vocations) which in this year is surrounded by two Augustinian feasts – 24th April – The Conversion of Saint Augustine and 26th April – Mary, Our Mother of Good Counsel (Patroness of the Augustinian Province of Australasia). I offer here a brief reflection on the feast of St Augustine’s conversion. It is interesting that the date chosen does not relate to the famous scene in the garden in Milan when Augustine made a graced decision to turn towards Christ (as portrayed in The Confessions of St Augustine, Book VIII).

Zagarella All Rights Reserved Abstract Augustinian education is a Catholic education offered through an Augustinian lens. This education is rooted in the history and values of the Order of St. Augustine of Hippo carried forth and appropriated to the modern day by those who have steeped themselves in the life and legacy of Augustine of Hippo. This qualitative case study attempts to investigate the lay faculty participants’ understanding of three Augustinian core values and how those values are operationalized in their interaction with students inside and outside the classroom. The study also investigates if there is a perceived need for further professional development in the Augustinian values and the form it should take from the perspective of the lay faculty participants.
