Our revised Prayer-partner Program has been implemented now for several years. Each new Oblate (soon after final Oblation) is partnered with a monk who has agreed to participate. There is no communication between partners unless both agree to such communication. Each partner prays for the other regularly, ideally daily, as best as he or she can. If you are a full Oblate who wishes to have a monk prayer-partner, please phone the Oblate Office.
