On Wednesday, 19 July 2023, Oblates in Bangladesh, Frs Ajit, Dilip, and Rocky, held a Live online conversation in the presence of the Superior General, Fr. Chicho.

The local Oblates took time to passionately share their gratitude with the whole Oblate family on the occasion of the 50 years of Oblate presence in their country and to share their experience of God’s grace, which has accompanied them for the past 50 years.

The Oblate Delegation of Bangladesh inaugurated their Golden Jubilee year of the Oblate presence in the country on July 29, 2022, in Lokhipur Parish. The first Oblates arrived in the country on July 29, 1973. Oblates currently serve in four dioceses in Bangladesh: the Archdiocese of Dhaka, the Archdiocese of Chattagram, the Diocese of Sylhet, and the Diocese of Rajshahi.

In his message to the members of the Delegation, the Superior General invited them, in the words of Pope Francis, “to look at the past with gratitude, the present with passion, and to embrace the future with hope.”

Fr. Tony Ortiz, OMI hosted the online conversation; he allowed each guest to voice their gratitude for the good achieved over the past 50 years, their passion for the present, and their hopes for the future.
