This blog is dedicated to faithful priests who devote their lives to the service of the people of God.
The Daisy Movement was founded on August 1, 1981 by Mrs. Louise Ward at Aylmer, Quebec. The purpose of the movement is to pray for priests, to offer one day a week for a particular priest to support him in his priestly ministry and spiritual life. For more information click here.
The diocese's annual Daisy Mass was celebrated on Thursday, September 17th at 7:00 p.m. at Notre-Dame du Rosaire in Crysler. Click here to see photos from the event.
