St. Augustine said, “Put charity in a heart and everything profits, take charity away and nothing profits.”
Given that Visitation’s Founder, St. Francis de Sales, is known as the Doctor of Divine Love, we can understand why he followed St. Augustine so closely and chose the Rule of St. Augustine for the Visitation Order.

Today, August 28th, is the Feast of St. Augustine. As the Visitation’s “grandfather” may he intercede for all Visitandines and all associated with the Visitation Order!
