St. Augustine Statue Installed in Chapel de San Nicolás de Tolentino, St. Rita Parish, Trujillo, Peru
On November 10th, 2024, the Parish of St. Rita in Trujillo, Peru, held a special Mass during which a new statue of St. Augustine was blessed prior to its installation in the Chapel of San Nicolás de Tolentino. Very Rev. Anthony B. Pizzo, O.S.A., who was visiting Trujillo at that time, was invited to celebrate the Mass and perform the blessing.
The ceremony was a memorable occasion for all present, bringing together the community in a meaningful celebration of faith and devotion. The statue was funded by donations from the Midwest Augustinian Province of Our Mother of Good Counsel.
