150th Anniversary Celebrations in Troyes, France - LiveStream Available!

This weekend, from October 3 to October 5, is very special for the Oblates from around the world. Many of us are gathering in Troyes, France (where Fr. Louis Brisson and Mother Mary de Sales Chappuis founded the Oblates). This city is on the west coast of France, two hours from Paris.

There are festivities planned all weekend for our brother Oblates from five continents! The North American Provinces are sending Oblate Fathers Bill Davis, Joseph Chorpenning, Michael Murray, Brother Dan Wisniewski, Deacon Jonathan Dick, and Seminarians Bill Grebe and Matt Trovato. Please keep all the Oblates in your prayers during this special time for us.
