Good morning. We invite you to join our Oblate Family Morning Prayer during this time of Lent. We join Jason O’Reilly of Kairos Community Trust, who brings us our morning prayer from London, on Saturday 9th of March.
Gospel Luke 18:9-14 ©
‘The tax collector, not the Pharisee, went home justified.’
Jason reflects: “This is a lesson in pride. Do we elevate our own self righteousness to beat down others? Or as the tax collector who beat his own chest in the firm understanding of his own sinfulness, for he would not look up to heaven, just as just as the Pharisee continued to, in his own mind, rise above God – a God He did not know.”
Thank you for joining us today.

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.
