Augustinian eNews Groundbreaking of St. Rita Place and the Cascia Center On August 10th, 2020, the groundbreaking of St. Rita Place and the Cascia Center took place. The Cascia Center was envisioned by Fr. Michael Di Gregorio, O.S.A., current Prior Provincial of the Province of Saint Thomas of Villanova, and former Director of the National Shrine of Saint Rita (1992-2007) as well as pastor of the then parish (1995-2007). The Center was a development of the effort begun in 1989 to expand the ministry and outreach of the Shrine in areas consistent with the charism and spirituality of Saint Rita.  Photos and Video of the Event Green Phase Memorial Masses Click here for schedule Province Gratitude Report  and Honor Roll of Donors The Augustinian Friars extend their deepest gratitude to the nearly 1,800 donors who generously provided support for our way of life and our ministries.
