***A Proposed Charism that will begin as Congregational Recluses in the CAMM/CCMM Prisons Division.***
The Oblates of the Virgin of the Seven Sorrows will have a great compassion for the Mother of Sorrows, not
only to console her, but to ask that the benefits from the devotion to her Sorrows be poured out upon the world.
Their habit will consist of a black tunic, white scapular and loose wimple, black veil and belt with Seven Sorrows rosary,
and a medal of the Virgin of the Seven Sorrows.
Levels of Formation and their habits:
Nova (three months): White blouse, skirt, tights, shoes, and veil. A small medal of the Virgin of the Seven
Sorrows will be worn around the neck.
Postulant (one year): Black blouse, capelet, skirt, tights, shoes, and veil. She retains the small medal
of the Virgin of the Seven Sorrows.
Novice (one year): All white habit. Receives the larger medal of the Virgin of the Seven Sorrows and the black
belt with large chaplet.
Temporary profession (five years): Receives the black tunic and veil.
Final profession: Receives a gold wedding band.
The habit will be very similar to the above, only with a less restrictive headdress.
The community will be bi-ritual, with a preference for the Mass in the Extraordinary Form (MEF/TLM). All prayers will
be in Latin.
If a Sedevacantist or member of another schismatic movement wishes to apply, we recommend deep discernment before making
application to this community. Reconciliation with Rome is prerequisite. May the Holy
Ghost be your guide.
