About us
Who we are
We are a community of Oblate Missionaries of Mary Immaculate, a religious community founded by St Eugene de Mazenod in 1816 in France. Established in UK since 1841, and Ireland since 1856, we are part of a global community of more than 4,000 Oblate priests and brothers in more than 60 countries of the world.
The Oblates strive to seek out, befriend and respect as sisters and brothers, the abandoned poor with their many faces: weak, unemployed, illiterate, victims of addictions, sick, marginalized, immigrants, minorities – not only the materially poor, but also those who are poor in spirit, those who do not know the name of Jesus Christ. Our mission invites us to a team approach, to collaboration with laity and other religious communities, to formation of lay leaders who will serve the needs of others, to become a part of the lives of those of others, to be always close to the people.
