Be extraordinary in ordinary things.
We are the Oblates of St. Joseph. We are priests and brothers who, like our patron and model St. Joseph, strive to live humble, hidden lives, and to do even our ordinary tasks in an extraordinary way.
We can long for the light as we long for the dawn, yet, like the dawn, we cannot hasten its arrival by one instant. We must, however, keep a watchful eye toward the east, precisely toward the point where the morning light is want to appear.
- St. Joseph Marello
