Diversity

We focus on respect for human dignity, social justice and solidarity. Respect for creation, responsibility and hope.

We want to be partners with the same right. For us there are “neither Jews nor Greek, nor slaves nor free, neither male nor female; for you are all one in Jesus Christ”(Gal 3,28).

We invite you to browse our website and hope that this will quickly establish a strong like with you, men and women from around the world.

More than ever before, education is the key for real development.

St. Rita

As a sign of grace, at the age of 60 Rita received the stigmata of the crown of thorns, in the form of an open wound on her forehead, for her profound veneration of the Passion of Christ


St. Justin's Chapel

In the 1960s, the Augustinian Fathers transformed the chapel and reserved a place for the institution’s patron saints: Justin (side altar), Monica (stained glass windows), Rita (side altar).

Philately

We organise public auctions of collector’s stamps. The profits are entirely donated to the Œuvre St. Justin.
