Born under the star of Capricorn, in the year of the Metal OX, I grew up to the music of the Beatles and witnessed the Ate Guy and Ate Vi fan-feuds, Toyota-Crispa rivalry, and the Thrilla in Manila on TV. Currently I am a friar of the Order of St. Augustine with some nine years of experience in webmastering and a lot more years in being a priest and a teacher. I am at the moment located somewhere in Laguna, Philippines, animating Basic Ecclesial Communities and teaching part-time. I run quite a few websites including AgustinongPinoy, Res Biblica, The Bible Workshop, the Collectanea Informatica and the Mystical Geek.

Augustine and Prayer

This morning I gave a lecture on Augustine’s idea of prayer at the CSA-Biñan as part of the school’s program in understanding Augustinian core values. During the course of the preparation for the talk, I looked at the way the Catechism of the Catholic Church makes use of Augustine’s works. I already knew that Augustine is the most quoted Father of the Church in the Catechism. I was surprised to find out that even in the fourth part of the Catechism, he is also quoted more than any of the Doctors, Fathers and spiritual writers referenced there.
