NORTH EASTON, MA. – June 3, 2024 – Today marks the 32nd anniversary of the passing of Father Patrick
Peyton, C.S.C. into eternal life. On June 1st , Holy Cross Family Ministries celebrated the life and mission of
Venerable Patrick Peyton, “The Rosary Priest” and advocate for families, gathering over 150 of the faithful.
In a world where families are struggling, this event was a time for prayer, reflection, and community to
honor his life, mission, enduring legacy, and the work toward his Cause for Sainthood.
The event included a profound reflection, presented by Allison Gingras, on The Power of Intercessory
Prayer and the Rosary, before the Vigil Mass was celebrated by Father William Lies, C.S.C., Superior of
