Monthly Oblate Meeting - June 2025

Greetings fellow Oblates! In 2025, we begin our new ongoing formation for all oblates of St. Paul’s Monastery. This is our opportunity to be together as an oblate community, but also to spend intentional time in prayer, lectio, and study – all pillars of what it means to be Benedictine.

These monthly sessions are also meant to be an opportunity for Oblates to invite a guest to join us. This can be one way of introducing others to the monastery and to the Rule of Benedict and, maybe even the possibility of becoming an Oblate! If you are bringing a guest, you must register them if they are coming for dinner. The cost of dinner is each Oblate’s (and guest’s) responsibility.

The conversations will be both in-person and available via Zoom. Here is the Zoom link:
