article from Winter, 1983-84 Vol. III, Number 2 Ridgely Benedictine Notes
The jubilee day of November 19, 1983, was crowned by another event, the first of its kind in the long history of the Ridgely Benedictine Community. Mother Patricia Gamgort presided over the oblation ceremony of seven persons from northern Delaware. The Community's first Oblates of St. Benedict are the following: Susan Peluso, chemist; Dina Stewart, and Catherine Maguire, nurses; Pat Peterson, teacher at St. Elizabeth School; Judith Woodson Taylor, wife and mother; Joseph Koyne, husband and father; and Rose Marie Curran, chairperson of the Social Studies Department at St. Mark High School.
Other potential Oblates, all from the Eastern Shore of Maryland, are in the formation stage.
Anyone interested in learning about affilation with St. Gertrude Priory as an Oblate of St. Benedict is invited to write to Sr. Miriam Ruth Wilk.
