Oblate Youth Encounter
July 13-17, 2020

Dear Oblates, Oblate Associates, Youth Ministry Leaders in OMI Lacombe Canada,

Many of you are accompanying young people in your parishes, ministries, schools, and also in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you for your dedication, compassion and care for young people! As the last General Chapter reminded us, “The missionary heritage we have received from Saint Eugene clearly puts youth at the center of our call to mission.” (Acts of the 36th General Chapter (2016) No. 18)

This summer we invite young people (15-35 of age) from Canada and United States for a very first ever the Regional Canada-US Oblate Youth Encounter. This encounter is meant to connect young generation with Christ as well as with each other and get to know the charism of St. Eugene de Mazenod.

Date: July 13-17, 2020 (first and last days – travel)

Place: National Shrine of Our Lady of the Snows, Belleville, Illinois

Costs: $545 CAD (no transportation included)

$665 CAD including transportation (bus) from the GTA

To register: Click on this link to access registration form.

Preparation is on the way and a number of powerful speakers such as Fr. Salvador Gonzalez and DJ Bernal are looking forward to inspire the participants. We are planning for around 300 participants from Canada/US Region. The cost includes the event registration, accommodations and meals. The accommodations will be in the hotel (calculated cost is for 5 persons per room). Please remember that the Province will supplement the cost for the participants from OMI Lacombe Canada with $200 Can each.

If you have any questions or seek more information, please do not hesitate to contact me.
