Oblate Program at Belmont Abbey, NC

Facebook: Oblates of St. Benedict?

NoFacebook-webAt the last meeting a number of Oblates came very early expecting Mass. They reported getting their information from a “Belmont Abbey Oblate Facebook page.”

In discussing the various means of communication for the Oblate Program, the Abbot expressly forbid the use of Facebook in favor of a traditional website. We live in a country where we are free to communicate and Oblates are encouraged to support one another in the way they find most useful. But please remember the Facebook page is private and is not an officially recognized site for Belmont Abbey. In addition, by neglecting the official site you are neglecting your formation — and will run into communication problems again in the future.
