This document outlines a renewal project for the Augustinian Order in the Asia Pacific region from 2009-2012. It involves a three stage process to: 1) define an ideal model of Augustinian life, 2) understand the implications of that ideal, and 3) enact a prophetic presence. Each stage involves phases of reflection, evaluation, and implementation at the individual and communal levels to renew lifestyle and activities. The goal is to rediscover the Augustinian charism and define a framework for religious life that responds to the signs of the times.
