WELCOME

St. Augustine is a small, yet strong parish in the farming communities of Germantown, Farmersville, New Lebanon and surrounding areas.

We are a family….one mass, one mission, one goal to serve God and help others. When you join the St. Augustine parish you are immediately adopted by this faith community; you are welcomed into this family.

As a parishioner you will always be supported in all your endeavors. Involvement in the parish only increases your blessings of friendship, support, and love!

Our Vision

“We, the members of the Holy Spirit Family of Parishes, will foster discipleship by making the Eucharist the center of our lives as we form, live, and share our faith.”

      The Church’s official prayer, and the highest form of prayer after the Mass. It is an ancient, structured way of praying Scripture throughout the day, focusing especially on the Psalms. It hearkens back to the Jewish custom of praying at fixed hours, a practice continued by the early Church.
   The practice developed significantly in the third and fourth centuries formalizing with Saint Benedict's Rule in the sixth century. The current name and format were established after the Second Vatican Council in 1971, though the fundamental practice of sanctifying the day with set prayers has roots in the New Testament itself.

The Dynamic Catholic Prayer

Loving Father,

I invite you into my Life today,
And make myself available to you.
Help me to become the best version of myself,
By seeking Your will
and by being a living example of your love in the world.
Open my heart to the areas of my life that need to change,
so, I can carry out the mission you have imagined for my life
and experience the joy you desire for me.
inspire me to live the Catholic faith in ways that are dynamic and engaging.
Show me how to best get involved in the life of my parish.
Give our community a hunger for best practices and continuous learning.
Glve me courage when I am afraid,
hope when I am discouraged, and clarity in times of decision.
Lead your church to become all you imagined it would be
for the people of our times.

Amen

Save These Dates

St. Augustine Rummage Sale

Friday September 25 10-6
Saturday September 26 9-4

Drop off acceptable clean and working items prior to sale date, after Sunday mass, and 9:30- 10:30 and after Wednesday Rosary 7-8:00 pm. Call Susie @937-657-7298 to schedule additional drop off time.

      On October 13, 1917, Our Lady performed the Miracle of the Sun, witnessed by 70,000 people at Fatima, including atheists, communists and anticatholics (leading many to convert). To honor this miracle, which occurred around noon time and to show Our Lady we hear her request to stop offending God by our sins, we are hosting a public rosary rally at Queen of Martyrs, Saturday, October 11, at noon. We know our sins have caused America to suffer a societal collapse and we know we must urgently stop sinning if we hope to enjoy God's blessings and to avert his wrath. He will hear us, if we pray through the intercessions of his Blessed Mother.

     In the Secret of the Rosary, Saint Louis de Montfort said: “Public prayer is far more powerful than private prayer to appease the anger of God and call down his mercy, and Holy Mother Church, guided by the Holy Ghost, has always advocated public prayer in times of public tragedy and suffering.” See you Saturday, October 5, noon. Meet at our Mary statue at Queen of Martyrs.
