The Oblate
The Oblate is a newsletter produced by and for Saint John's Oblates and others seeking God. It is available in hard copy by subscription and online at www.osb.org/oblate/.
Benedictine Daily Prayer: A Short Breviary
Benedictine Daily Prayer: A Short Breviary is published by Liturgical Press. Benedictine Daily Prayer is designed for Benedictine Oblates, Benedictine monastics, and men and women everywhere. It's small enough to fit in a briefcase for travel. Scripture readings are from the New Revised Standard Version.
"Oblates of St. Benedict who are looking for a more comprehensive form of the Divine Office will find this book fulfilling that desire without being burdensome. An editor who is both an oblate and a liturgist has accomplished this fine work. People other than oblates will also benefit from its use. Years ago the Liturgical Press introduced the laity to the Divine Office with the publication of A Short Breviary. Benedictine Daily Prayer follows in that tradition."
Brother Benet Tvedten, O.S.B., Oblate Director, Blue Cloud Abbey.
The Benedictine Handbook
The Benedictine Handbook is a lifelong companion for Oblates, associates, and friends of the Benedictine communities. Assembled by the monks of Ampleforth Abbey, Yorkshire, the book was published in the US by Liturgical Press in 2003. It is possible to order the 320-page, hardcover book online.
The Abbey Banner
The Abbey Banner, a colorfully illustrated magazine about Saint John's Abbey is available online. Edited by Fr. Daniel Durken OSB of our Liturgical Press, The Abbey Banner's slick design and expanded content lend itself to the .pdf format for which an Acrobat Reader is required. The magazine is written for Oblates, friends and benefactors. For a hardcopy subscription, contact Father Daniel.
