Marie-Rose Chapel

Since May 1, 2004, Marie-Rose Durocher has been back in Longueuil, where she founded the Congregation and made her first vows. That is also where her funeral was celebrated with deep emotion after her early death in 1849.


A place of peace
and recollection,
the chapel is open every day
from 7:30 a.m.
until 5:00 p.m.

In the right transept of Saint-Antoine-de-Padoue Cocathedral (Corner of St-Charles Ouest and Chemin Chambly in Longueuil), the Marie-Rose Chapel was dedicated in her honor. The remains of Blessed Marie-Rose lie under the altar in a rose-colored marble tomb, where parishioners and others gather daily to pray and honor her.

Her presence blesses any person who asks for her help and protection.



To Marie-Rose Durocher

What remains of you,
is a gentle influence
          on our milieu,
    a protection
          for our families
    tenderness
          for our children,
    a presence to invoke,
    peace to call upon
          for our world.

Ever alive,
            Marie-Rose,
                      intercede for us.
