Associate Program
2007-2008 College Associates of the Oblates of St. Francis de Sales

The Associate Program brings college students interested in a religious vocation together with our community to discern through prayer, community, and reflection while remaining at their individual campuses. We Oblates are proud of the maturity that grounds the faith journeys of our 18 Associates. Collecting photos of them is not easy, but as we do, we invite you to meet them in these brief web profiles.
