Next year, the Oblates of the Virgin Mary mark two milestone anniversaries—our 200th anniversary as a Congregation and 50 years of service in the United States. Just 50 years ago, our province began when Fr. Antolini arrived in Boston with only $200 in his pocket and the instruction to “start a foundation in Boston.”

Your Gift Has Impact.

Your gift to the Oblates of the Virgin Mary Annual Fund makes an immediate and lasting impact. Over the last 50 years, our generous supporters have helped our province spread across the country and created the strong community we are today. The OMV Annual Fund directly supports:

  • Growing core ministries
  • Spiritual outreach that meets people’s needs both in person and online
  • Ongoing support for Oblates serving parishes, shrines, and retreat ministries
  • Attracting new vocations
  • Faithful formation for seminarians discerning their vocation, including our two new seminarians at Our Lady of Grace seminary

Read our annual newsletter to learn more about our work and ministries over the past year and our plans for the future.

We are forever grateful for your generous gifts and prayers. Your generosity allows the Oblates to continue guiding others toward God’s mercy. 

Partners in Our Mission

When you make a recurring monthly gift, you become a steady partner in our mission. Regular giving allows us to plan confidently for formation, ministry programs, and outreach, ensuring that Mary’s “yes” continues to echo through every generation.

I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.
