What exactly is a Benedictine Oblate? What do they do?I love the Benedictines, and am interested. I wear a cross of St. Benedict all the time, and pray the Monastic Diurnal (from Farnborough). I go to the TLM every week, celebrated by a holy Benedictine priest.So I’m naturally interested in Oblates.
An oblate seeks to follow Christ enlightened by the Rule of St Benedict and in support and solidarity with a particular Benedictine community. He does this as a lay person. It is a formal commitment which requires different levels of involvement depending on the community. You can email me for more information if you wish. Use the contact page on my website.
Wow. That’s the most clear and concise version of the Benedictine vows I’ve ever read!
