The annual Old Augustinians Mass of Remembrance takes place on Saturday 8th November 2025 at 12 noon at St. Augustine's Abbey Church, Ramsgate and we very much hope you can attend this annual event to remember those OAs who gave their lives in the two World Wars.
As in previous years we are delighted to have invited Students from the Ursuline College to read out the Roll of Honour of those Old Augustinians who attended our School in Ramsgate and who fell in World Wars One and Two. Many students from the school visited War graves in Ypres last June and laid wreaths at some of the graves of OAs.
After the final blessing there will be the Blessings of Graves and the Laying of the Wreath at the OA War Memorial with prayers and a blessing. At the end of the service all are welcome to light refreshments in the Cartoon Room in the grounds of the Grange. Presentation of Gits will be presented to the new Parish Priest for Ramsgate and Minster, Fr. Jonathan Routh in aid of the St. Augustine's Visitor Centre.
