So that I can hear your voice.
you'll stop talking with love;
if you shout, you'll shout with love;
if you correct, you'll correct with love.
it has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy.
It has eyes to see the misery and want.
It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of people.
This is what love looks like.
whose temples you have become.
my strength and in the name of the Lord,
I also have friends who have accepted
to follow the same ideal.

Augustinians Malta - Agostinjani
The Order of Hermits of Saint Augustine (Augustinians) is a religious order of brothers (many of whom are ordained priests) within the Catholic Church. The Order was founded in 1256 under the Rule of Saint Augustine.
Following the Ordinary Provincial Chapter 2026, which we Augustinians celebrated in March and April of this year, discussions continued regarding our life in the respective communities, and the ministries we carry out in various realities. Current circumstances require us to continue a journey of reflection that also leads to decisions.
In this spirit, it has been decided that the Communities of Saint Nicholas of Tolentino in Tarxien and Saint Thomas of Villanova in Pietà will be merged into a single community, which will be based in Pietà and will serve both St Augustine College and the Church of Saint Nicholas in Tarxien. The Province will continue to invest in its educational mission, and therefore the facilities in Tarxien will be used for a college expansion project that we will be developing over the coming years. It is worth recalling that our building in Tarxien had already served educational purposes years ago, first through the benefactor himself Fr Ġwann Mamo, and later through the Augustinian friars with St Augustine College, before it was transferred to Pietà. On the other hand, the church in Tarxien will remain open and continue serving the local community, although there will be a reduction in the daily sacramental pastoral services provided there.
The post-Chapter decisions also include a number of new responsibilities and transfers of religious friars who will be serving in new communities or ministries. Those who are close to us understand that this is a process we go through every four years and that it forms part of our commitment to consecrated life and service to the Church wherever it is needed. These moments naturally bring with them a variety of emotions, and we therefore appreciate your closeness, support, and prayers.

Wara l-Kapitlu Provinċjali Ordinarju 2026 li bħala aħwa Agostinjani għexna bejn Marzu u April li għadda, komplew id-diskussjonijiet dwar il-ħajja tagħna fil-Komunitajiet u l-ministeri li nwettqu f’diversi realtajiet. Iċ-ċirkustanzi qegħdin jitolbu li nkomplu mixja ta’ riflessjoni li twassal anke għal deċiżjonijiet.
F’dan l-ispirtu, ġie deċiż li l-Komunitajiet ta’ San Nikola minn Tolentino f’Ħal Tarxien u ta’ San Tumas minn Villanova f’Tal-Pietà jingħaqdu f’komunità waħda li ser tibda tgħix f’Tal-Pieta u sservi kemm il-Kulleġġ Santu Wistin u anke l-Knisja ta’ San Nikola f’Ħal Tarxien. Il-Provinċja ser tkompli tinvesti fil-missjoni edukattiva u għaldaqstant l-ispazji f’Ħal Tarxien ser ikunu qed jintużaw għal proġett ta’ estensjoni tal-Kulleġġ li ser inkunu qed naħdmu fuqu fis-snin li ġejjin. Ta min ifakkar li l-bini tagħna f”Ħal Tarxien snin ilu kien ġa jservi bħala spazji edukattivi kemm mid-donatur Dun Ġwann Mamo u anke wara mill-aħwa Agostinjani bil-Kulleġġ Santu Wistin qabel ma ġie trasferit f’Tal-Pietà. Mill-banda l-oħra l-Knisja f’Ħal Tarxien ser tibqa miftuħa u sservi l-komunità tal-madwar, anke jekk ser ikun hemm ridimensjonar tal-pastorali sagramentali li jsir fiha ta’ kuljum.
Id-deċiżjonijiet Post Kapitulari jinkludu anke numru ta’ responsabiltajiet ġodda u ċaqlieq ta’ reliġjużi li ser ikunu qed iservu f’komunitajiet jew realtajiet ġodda. Dawk kollha li huma qrib tagħna jifhmu li dan huwa proċess li ngħixu kull erba’ snin u huwa parti mill-għotja tagħna fil-ħajja konsagrata u s-servizz lill-Knisja fejn ikun meħtieġ. Dawn huma mumenti li jġibu magħhom anke diversi sentimenti u għaldaqstant napprezzaw il-viċinanza, s-sapport, u t-talb tagħkom.
