The "Recollect Order," formally known as the Order of Augustinian Recollects, is a Roman Catholic religious order founded in the late 16th century. It emerged as a reform movement within the Augustinian Order, focusing on a more austere lifestyle and deeper spiritual commitment. The Recollects emphasize community life, prayer, and service, particularly in missionary work. Members of the Recollect Order are known for their dedication to education and pastoral care. They operate schools, parishes, and retreat centers, aiming to foster spiritual growth and social justice. The order has a global presence, with communities in various countries, continuing its mission of evangelization and service.
