	Oblate (religion) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Traditionally, oblates are laypersons, not professed monks, nuns, or friars, who have individually affiliated themselves in prayer with a House of their choice.
		At a later date the word "oblate" was used to describe such lay men or women as were pensioned off by royal and other patrons upon monasteries or benefices, where they lived as in an almshouse or hospital.
		Examples include the Oblates of the Benedictine Congregation of Monte Oliveto (Olivetans), the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate, the Oblates of St Francis of Rome (founded 1433 in Italy), and the Benedictine Oblates of St Scholastica (founded 1944 in Italy).

	The Origin of the Oblates by the Monks of Saint John's Abbey, 1955. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Saint Benedict, whose name in Latin means "blessed," was born about the year 480 A.D. in the small town of Nursia (Norcia), about one hundred miles northwest of Rome.
		Little is known of his parents, except that they were of the ancient Roman nobility and had another child, Scholastica, who was to become a disciple of her brother and be seen by him borne to heaven, after her death, in the form of a dove.
		From the life of Saint Benedict, as told by Saint Gregory the Great, it appears that Oblates were received by our holy Father already at Subiaco, before he founded his monastery at Monte Cassino.

	Douai Oblates
		Parenting is a spiritual calling from God: the advice St Benedict has for an abbot in being a father to his monks, is applicable for a parent guiding her or his children.
		Indeed one of the causes of the collapse of monastic spirituality before the Reformation was the gradual decline of communality at meals, and sociological evidence suggests that the contemporary decline in family meals is a cause of much family trouble and breakup.
		St Benedict’s view that the utensils of the kitchen are to be treated as vessels of the altar suggest the kitchen and dining-room are set apart as sacred as the high altar.

		Thus an oblate is not simply someone who is interested in monastic spirituality: like a monk or nun, the oblate is part of a particular monastic community which he or she regards as his or her spiritual home.
		Instead, oblates carry Benedictine spirituality back to their parish communities, and they share with their monastic community the fruit of their life in the parish and in the world.
		The oblate program and the process of oblate formation are described in more detail in the Oblate Constitutions, a document which is part of the Customary (and thus part of the "proper law") of the Abbey.
