Dear Friend,
 Realizing the need for both prayer and proper medical care, the Missionary Oblates provide clinics and other care facilities in their missions around the world. The Oblates established a medical and dental clinic in La Morita, Mexico that provides low-cost services to people who might otherwise have gone without. In response to the AIDS pandemic in Kenya the Oblates have set up a volunteer-run HIV/AIDS counseling and testing center. And in Seong-nam, South Korea the Oblates welcome thousands of needy people to Anna’s House, a shelter and soup kitchen that provides everything from a hot meal to medical care.
All of this is made possible through the power of prayer. I would like to help you remember a loved one or friend who is in need of prayers for healing. And when you show them your love and concern, you can help the poor and needy people served by the Missionary Oblates at the same time. Simply follow these steps:
- Request Oblate Get Well cards. When you send them to loved ones in need, I will have a Votive Candle lit for them here at the National Shrine of Our Lady of the Snows. The suggested donation for these cards is $7 each.
- Cheer up a loved one who is ill by sending them a Get Well gift. These devotional gifts will remind them that they are being remembered in prayer.
- Have a Lourdes Healing Candle lit for a loved one or friend at the Sacred Grotto in Lourdes, France. For a donation of $50 or more, the Missionary Oblates will have a Lourdes Healing Candle lit for your loved one at this sacred place.
- Enroll your loved one on the Oblates’ Get Well Prayer Chain. This special worldwide network of prayer is specifically for those who are sick. Tell them they can view the Get Well Prayer Chain on our website.
My friend, thank you for your support of our healing ministries. Please know that I am remembering you and your loved ones in my daily prayers.
 In Jesus Christ and Mary Immaculate,
Fr. John Madigan, O.M.I.
Oblate Chaplain Director
