Oblate Pray and Work weekend

We just completed our 7th annual Oblate Pray and Work weekend. While we did not have quite as many attending and taking part in the weekend this year as in past years, it was a good group and they did a lot of work as well as prayed with the monks. They also enjoyed one meal with the monastic community and also had some social time on their own. To see more photos of the weekend go to:

The weather for the weekend was perfect as it was cloudy and cool on Saturday. We did have a little rain shower around noon but it soon passed and we were able to work outdoors again by 1:30 or 2:00 PM.

Our own confrere, Father Karl, spent a couple days here with us. He left today to fly to Australia for the World Youth Conference. He is the pastor at Fulton, Missouri in the diocese of Jefferson City.
