The Oblate Program Benedictine Oblates are lay persons who associate themselves with a Benedictine monastic community to share in their search for God.
Oblates strive to incorporate Benedictine values and spirituality into their everyday lives.
Profession of those who have completed their novitiate year. We hope you will join us for this special day. We look forward to visiting with Oblates, and welcome guests to participate in these activities. Oblation May be Renewed by Mail Oblates are invited each year to renew their oblation and association with St. Gregory's Abbey during annual Oblate gatherings. If you are an oblate of our community and have not been able to attend these meetings, we invite you to renew your commitment with us by mail.
