Serving with Humble Hearts, Healing with Gentle Hands

Humility is the foundation of all virtue, calling us to put others before ourselves and seek God’s will above our own. This foundational virtue drives us to serve others selflessly, with compassion and love. It is the essence of the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate’s work, as they live out this spirit daily, often unnoticed by the world. Their humble lives echo Christ’s example of love, sacrifice, and service to others.

A Real-Life Testimony: José’s Prayer Answered

While the Missionary Oblates embody humility through their vow of poverty and their work with the most forgotten and impoverished, their efforts are not just abstract ideals—they are made real through the stories of those whose lives have been transformed.

Take, for instance, the story of José Martínez and his wife María Hernández, elderly migrants seeking refuge from hardship. Their story is one of resilience, faith, and divine intervention. When tragedy struck their home, they turned to the Missionary Oblates for help, and in doing so, found the life-changing support they needed.

The “Building Hope” Roofing Program: A Lifeline of Support

It was through the Missionary Oblates‘ “Building Hope” Roofing Program that José and María’s most desperate prayers were answered. This initiative is dedicated to helping people like José—those who are unable to repair their homes on their own due to financial hardship. What might seem like a small act to some—a roof repair—became a turning point in their lives.

Thanks to the tireless work of the young volunteers, and with the support of Serving Hands International, José and María’s home was restored to dignity. The program not only repaired their roof but also restored their faith in the possibility of a better future.

This is a direct example of how donations help fund initiatives like the “Building Hope” Roofing Program, enabling the Missionary Oblates to provide critical assistance to families in need, transforming lives one roof at a time.

Your Role in Supporting Our Missions: How You Can Make a Difference

José and María’s transformation through the “Building Hope” Roofing Program is a powerful example of how compassionate support can make a real difference. However, this is only one of many missions that require your help to continue.

The Missionary Oblates are committed to serving the most vulnerable communities, but they cannot do it alone. Your support—whether through prayers, volunteering, or donations—ensures that these vital missions can continue and grow, reaching even more people in need.
