Congratulations! The world needs more oblates.
A deep part of Christian spirituality is in monasticism.
Please continue to write about your oblate experiences.
Goodnes, gracious, John! You posting of such a thoughtful comment was surely a speedy one! I had hardly posted when it popped up. Tomorrow I will add your website to my life of good place to visit. And you can be sure that I'll tell the story of my oblate life as it develops. Thanks again for your encouragement.
