Inspired by the spirituality of Saint Augustine, they work in fields such as evangelization, education, parish life and social outreach, especially among the most vulnerable.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"txvgku\" data-start=\"571\" data-end=\"613\"><strong data-start=\"574\" data-end=\"613\">Who are the Augustinian Recollects<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"614\" data-end=\"924\">The <strong data-start=\"617\" data-end=\"649\">Order of Augustinian Recollects<\/strong> is a religious family of the Catholic Church born in 1588, in the context of the spiritual renewal that followed the Council of Trent. It arose within the Order of Saint Augustine out of the desire to live community life, interiority and mission more intensely.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"926\" data-end=\"1130\">Today, the Augustinian Recollects are a <strong data-start=\"963\" data-end=\"1003\">missionary order with a global presence<\/strong>, made up of some 920 friars living in 159 communities across 22 countries in Europe, the Americas, Asia and Africa.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"gq0n8r\" data-start=\"1137\" data-end=\"1161\"><strong data-start=\"1140\" data-end=\"1161\">Origins and history<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1162\" data-end=\"1356\">The Order was officially born in 1588 in Spain, when a group of Augustinian friars launched a movement of \u201crecollection\u201d, that is, a more austere way of life, lived in community and centred on prayer.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1358\" data-end=\"1605\">From their origins, the Augustinian Recollects have been deeply linked to mission. Their early expansion went above all to the Americas and the Philippines, where they carried out an intense evangelizing work that has shaped their identity to this day.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1607\" data-end=\"1844\">Over the centuries, the Order has built a significant presence on several continents, adapting to the challenges of each age without losing its spiritual core: seeking God in community and serving the Church.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"2w5l89\" data-start=\"1851\" data-end=\"1874\"><strong data-start=\"1854\" data-end=\"1874\">Charism and mission<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1875\" data-end=\"2027\">The charism of the Augustinian Recollects is rooted in the spirituality of Saint Augustine, centred on interiority, fraternal life and communion.<\/p>\n<p
