Our mission is similar to that of all secular institutes. It commits us to a responsible presence and to a transforming action within the temporal realities to make them more just and more human.

As Oblates, this mission specifically invites us, like Christ, to manifest the unconditional love of God the Father to everyone by revealing the signs of His presence at the heart of daily life.

We live this commitment in different milieus, through a trade or a profession of our choice, and by sharing the concerns common to all.

Our charism defines our way of being in the world. It is a spiritual dynamism that enables us to realize our mission and therefore to participate in the mission of the Church in the world.

The charism is what distinguishes us from other secular institutes. It invites us to a constant availability to the will of the Father to live everywhere the charity of Christ through service, with the help of Mary.

Availability to the Father’s will, unconditional and universal love of neighbour, unselfish service to others and devotion to Mary are the components that continually inspire each Oblate as she carries out her mission.
