FATHER EUSEBE-HENRI MENARD BACKGROUND
Born in East Broughton, Quebec, Canada in 1916, Fr. Menard was ordained a priest in 1941. Several years later, he was instrumental in founding a seminary in Montreal for both young and older men. Initially it was named the Apostolic School of St. Pascal, it them became the Seminary of the Holy Apostles. Fr. Menard went on to help found several seminaries, retreat centers, and healthcare organizations. His efforts led to The Society of the Holy Apostles, The Society of the Sisters of the Holy Apostles, The Society of the Missionaries of the Holy Apostles, and The Father Eusebe Menard Foundation. Fr. Menard had a dream and a charism from the Holy Spirit, which is alive and vibrant since before the Vatican Council II and into this millennium: “to promote, form, and accompany youth and adults in their vocation to the priesthood and to other ministries in the church”.
The last 20 years of Fr. Menard’s life were spent helping the people of Peru. He died in 1987.*
