The Oblates of the Confraternity of Jesus, Priest & Victim are lay faithful who desires to walk the path of holiness. It is composed of married men and women, widows and widowers, single Catholics and seminarians. As oblates, you are invited to live a life of fidelity to the Lord in your own vocation while living the spirituality of oblation, reparation and adoration for the renewal and sanctification of priests and the healing of the Church.
“The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul. (Psalm 119:7)”
About the OBLATE adorers
A person who is called to be an intercessor for priests and desires to be a member of the Confraternity of Jesus must be a Catholic who desires to live a deeper union with God through the sacraments, fidelity to one’s particular vocation in life, a desire to live a virtuous life and to intercede for priests through their prayers.
A person who desires to become an Adorer of the Royal High Priest must make a private Act of Oblation to Jesus, Priest & Victim before the Crucifix and send the signed copy to the priest-in-charge of the Confraternity of Jesus.
The Act of Oblation is to be renewed every Good Friday in imitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Beloved Disciple St. John, and the other disciples who remained at the Foot of the Cross despite its scandal.
An adorer is to make a Eucharistic Holy Hour of Reparation for Priests every Thursday (or another day of the week if Thursday is difficult for one’s vocation and work) and pray every day a Prayer for Priests and the Act of Oblation.
An adorer is to keep a healthy friendship with priests and to keep proper boundaries in dealing with them.
The Adorers of the Royal High Priest support each other through prayer and friendship and are united with their common love to Christ the High Priest and His priests.
Every member enjoys the spiritual benefit of being a part of a spiritual family of priests, consecrated religious and the lay faithful. The prayer of every member is also a sign of continuous intercession for each other as members of the Mystical Body of Christ.
A once-a-year gathering is determined for the spiritual enrichment and fraternal support of the members.
May God who has begun this good work in us bring it to completion in the Day of Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
ACT OF OBLATION TO JESUS, PRIEST AND VICTIM
(To be renewed every Good Friday in front of a Crucifix)
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
I, ___________________________________, do hereby make a private act of oblation, to Jesus Christ, Priest & Victim. I willingly and freely offer my entire being to our Lord Jesus Christ, present in the most Blessed Sacrament through the spiritual way of oblation, reparation and adoration.
In union with all my brothers and sisters of the Confraternity of Jesus, Priest & Victim, I commit myself to living my Christian life in fidelity to my own particular vocation and to live a virtuous life, to constantly desire a deeper union with God through prayer and the sacraments and to be an intercessor for priests. I will offer my daily prayers, a weekly adoration of the Most Blessed Sacrament and acts of reparation for the healing and sanctification of priests.
May this act of oblation be a pleasing fragrance of self-offering to the Most Holy Trinity. Through the intercession of Holy Mary, our Queen and Mother, and all the saints, may the Lord grant me the grace of total fidelity to the promises of my baptism and the vows of my particular vocation. Amen.
