  • They have oblates.  I do not know if they call themselves terciaries.  They call themselves oblates though.  I am sure it is the same thing.  I would check into the monastery in Colombia under Fr. Raphael Arízaga OSB or the Benedictines here in Brazil under Dom Tomás.
    We conclude logically that religion can give an efficacious and truly realistic answer to the great modern problems only if it is a religion that is profoundly lived, not simply a superficial and cheap religion made up of some vocal prayers and some ceremonies...

  • The Benedictines don't have a Third Order. Each monastery has oblates. Contact Fr. Raphael or Fr. Thomas Aquinas.

  • If you are interested in becoming an oblate I recommend that you find a monastery and ask the abbot if you can become an oblate.
