Welcome to the Brooklyn Oratory
What is the Brooklyn Oratory?
The Congregation of the Oratory is a group of priests and lay brothers living a common life without vows. The Oratorian vocation is unique in the Church where most priests are either secular (diocesan) priests, or religious priests, who normally live in community, and are bound by vows.
