WMF: St. Augustine & St. Monica - Persevering Prayer

This is a story that could easily be transposed into a modern day family drama. Augustine, the son, leaves the family home to study and gets caught up in partying, women, and paganism. Monica, a determined mother who wants nothing but the best for her son, fights for his heart. As Br. Paul, an Augustinian, says “Nothing stepped in the way of Grace later on”. Augustine and Monica went on to become some of the best known saints. Filmed at the Augustinian Monastery in Marylake, ON, Br. Paul and Fr. Timothy offer us a reflection on the lives of these two saints and how a mother’s prayer can change everything.

The World Meeting of Families is the world’s largest Catholic gathering of families. Each one has a theme that energizes and enlivens the event while adding great depth of meaning to our understanding of families. The theme of the World Meeting of Families – Philadelphia 2015 is “Love Is Our Mission: The Family Fully Alive,” emphasizing the impact of the love and life of families on our society.
