📍 Episode 5: Basilica of Saint Augustine (St. Tryphon): The Death of St. Monica – A Mother’s Mission Fulfilled In this episode of Pilgrimage Through Rome’s Station Churches, we reflect on St. Monica, the mother of St. Augustine, whose unwavering prayers led to one of the greatest conversions in Church history. After years of interceding for her son, Monica saw Augustine baptized in 386 AD. Shortly after, in the port city of Ostia, she peacefully departed this life, her mission complete.
