The LCC Waves

"Tolle, lege. Tolle, lege."

Exactly 1,640 years ago today, in a garden in the city of Milan, a brilliant but troubled man began the journey that would change his life forever.

Today marks the day our Patron, Saint Augustine of Hippo, converted to a life of faith. After hearing the voice of a child chanting, “Tolle, lege. Tolle, lege” ("Take and read; take and read"), he felt called to abandon his sinful path and begin a new chapter.

The moment he surrendered his will in 386 AD profoundly impacted the course of history. His conversion led to countless others, his elevation to Doctor of the Church, and a legacy of teachings that offer a timeless perspective on our relationship with God.

“You have made us for yourself, O Lord, and our hearts are restless until they rest in You.”
