Oblate Retreat November 2026

About this event

This retreat is now full. Email retreat@mtangel.edu to be added to the waitlist.

Led by Fr. Michael Shrum, OSB

Oblate retreats are limited to oblates and those interested in becoming oblates.

Oblates of Saint Benedict are Christians who have experienced in some way a call to embrace Benedictine spirituality. After a time of prayer and discernment they have desired a more formal, permanent commitment to a monastic community. By making this formal self-giving to Christ in communion with a monastic community, the oblate embraces the time-tested traditions and values of the Benedictine way. Oblates are united to the prayer and good works of the monastery to which they are associated while they continue to live out their Christian vocation in the world.

For more information on becoming on oblate, or if you are in need of financial assistance, please email Lucy Baker , Assistant Oblate Director.
