## Resource

Pope Leo the Fourteenth, still beloved by his Augustinian brothers as “Father Bob,” is bringing his humble, community-centered spirit to the Vatican — a quiet force rooted in Saint Augustine’s teachings, where truth is found in listening, charity in serving the vulnerable, and unity in embracing differences. With just 3,000 friars across 50 countries, the order champions simplicity and dialogue — values they believe Pope Leo embodies and will help heal a fractured Church.
