A parish is a community of believers and a spiritual family. It can be a place to grow spiritually, to put your faith in action, and to use your gifts of time and talent as disciples of Christ. We also strive to share our gifts, our worship, our activities, and most of all the blessings we have received with others St. Augustine's has been a part of the Montpelier Community for over 200 years. We practice the traditional Roman Catholic liturgy at St. Augustine's and are grateful for the many blessings that God has given us.

St. Augustine Church
'Love has hands to help others. It has feet to hasten to the poor and needy. It has eyes to see misery and want. It has ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of others. That is what love looks like.
- St. Augustine of Hippo, 354 AD-430 AD
