Oblate District Retreat at Assisi



The Oblate Southern District held its retreat at Assisi from the 16th - 17th July 2007.

The Monday evening was devoted to the District Response to the Questionnaire in preparation for the Province Assembly. This was a deep sharing on issues that have been surfacing repeatedly from the past Congresses. A report was sent with Fr Masike who left early in the morning of the 17th for a meeting in Kimberley where the Preparitory Committee met. Fr Masike is our district representative on that committee as is Fr Papi Mothai and Fr Thuso Modibedi for the Western and Eastern Districts respectively. Fr Tobogo Jantjies is the overall coordinator of the committee.

The whole day Tuesday was devoted entirely to the monthly retreat. Please see the Year Plan on our Web Site for the plan for the next months.

It was the most wonderful time to spend in silence. We can never trade God for anything we just have to make time to find Him in our side always. The Highlight was the Holy Hour
