Good morning, fellow Christian brothers and sisters and welcome to morning prayer with Fr Paul Marx, an Oblate of Mary Immaculate in Denmark, where he has been stationed for the last 57 years. He came originally from the United States, then a missionary to Greenland and the Faroe Islands. We gather here this morning...
Oblates exercise very diverse ministries but above all seek to dedicate themselves to the poor and abandoned. One can thus find Oblates in Britain and Ireland working in parishes, in missionary formation, preaching, social justice and pastoral ministries, or prisons. “No ministry is alien to us as long as we never lose sight of the main purpose of the Congregation: the evangelization of the most abandoned.” ~ Oblate Constitutions and Rules.
