The Augustinian Fund—established in 2006—helps to provide for the care of infirm friars and those others who are no longer able to engage in full-time ministry. It also assists candidates and young friars preparing for the Augustinian way of life as well as ministries in Japan and Peru, the work of the Augustinian Volunteers, and the Province's Justice and Peace Ministries.
My cousin, Father Frank Farsaci, O.S.A., has been an Augustinian for over 50 years! During that time, Frank has always been there for our family and friends. Countless marriages, baptisms, funerals, etc., Frank always makes time to help, even if it is just listening to a problem. His selfless character is a reflection of who he is, that's certain.
My Great Uncle was Father John Bresnahan, O.S.A. From young age I have memories of visiting him in Washington, DC and then at Villanova. Several times a year, especially at Christmas he would come and visit us. I would spend time with him at breakfast listening to and learning from his many stories.
