Investing in the Future of Catholic Families

OUR VISION As the Apostle of Family Prayer, Venerable Patrick Peyton is on the path to sainthood. He built his ministry for the long-term, envisioning and praying for the team that follows him not to equal his work but to surpass it in quantity and quality. Now is the blessed moment and opportunity to make Father Peyton's vision a reality, meet today's families pressing needs, and honor our extraordinary founder. Together, through We Prayed! A Campaign for Family Prayer, we will create a beacon of hope for future generations, the Church, and our world.

YOUR LEADERSHIP Inspired by the life and works of Father Peyton and the lasting impact of prayer, we will transform The Father Peyton Center in North Easton, MA. Our ministry's headquarters just south of Boston shares a campus with Holy Cross Retreat Center and Stonehill College, affiliated with the Congregation of Holy Cross. Here we will create a sacred, engaging destination for family prayer and spiritual renewal. The new Center will serve families and pilgrims from around the world and will be a dignified resting place for Father Peyton.

Who was Father Peyton?

Father Patrick Peyton, C.S.C., devoted his priestly life to spreading devotion to Mary and encouraging family prayer, especially the Rosary. He used radio, television, and film, and 540 Rosary Rallies worldwide to accomplish his mission. Today, Father Peyton's messages that "The Family That Prays Together Stays Together" and "A World at Prayer is a World at Peace" are still well known around the world. His Cause for Sainthood was officially opened in 2001 and he is currently named Venerable. With your prayers, hopefully he will be recognized as a Saint for Family Prayer!
