This is a really helpful site! It really explained St. Augustine in a different light and helped me to understand in language that was more simple than what I was reading! One problem is that it is hard to find out how to cite this website for my project.
Beautiful site!! Helped me teach my RCIA class.
where did he die?
I need to do a report on him so this is a good site!
Does anyone know where this Augustine quote comes from? "What does love look like? It has the hands to help others. It has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy.

Happy Feast Day Papa St. Augustine ! I loved you very much......
Saint Augustine, Father, Bishop, man, pray for us all, All; pray for that platonic cubist Bride o new Jerusalem, Apostle Pearl spheres at Her Gates; pray party time in Heaven oscillates with double-sung prayers and prates; pray small earthen talk evaporates in Yahwehan Ecstasy; pray arch o'er Angel flight formations wing waggle, sparkle, praise holy sees in holy bees; pray sing Alleluias, Hosannas reverberant to Earths; pray with thy mother Monica, thy Mother Mary, and my mother Margaret; pray for peace and not for war or ware; pray for contemplation's lights, rights, justice and freedoms every where, for every one, for ever, Amen
Short and sweet! The information on the life of saints is written beautifully in a capsule. Thank you for the inputs
