The Rev. Robert F. Prevost, O.S.A., who, at the Post-Chapter meeting of the Province Council, was elected First Counselor and Vicar Provincial for the Province of Our Mother of Good Counsel. The Vicar Provincial acts on behalf of the Prior Provincial's absence.
Fr. Prevost also currently serves as the Director of Formation for Augustinian men in formation in Chicago, Illinois, at St. Augustine Friary. Prior to his current ministry, Fr. Prevost served as the Prior General of the Augustinian Order for two six-year terms. The Prior General is the worldwide leader of the Augustinians and works in Rome directly under the Pope.
We would also like to thank the Rev. Michael J. Slattery, O.S.A., who just completed his term on the Provincial Council. Fr. Slattery now serves as the Pastor of St. Augustine Church in Philadelphia. Thank you, Father, for your years of service on the Provincial Council!
