Support Elder and Infirmed Oblates

In the United States there are more than 110 elder and infirmed Oblates. Like the people they served in the missions for so many years, these men require medical care, food and shelter. Having lived lives of poverty and mission, these Oblates simply do not have the means to survive on their own.

Communities for elder and infirmed Oblates are the Benedictine Senior Living Community at the National Shrine of Our Lady of the Snows in Belleville, Illinois; the Oblate Madonna Residence at Our Lady of the Grotto and Tepeyac de San Antonio, Texas; and the Immaculate Heart of Mary Residence in Tewksbury, Massachusetts. These special facilities assure that these Oblate priests and brothers have adequate living conditions, medical necessities and transportation.
