Everything about Alexandre Tach totally explained
Alexandre-Antonin Taché (
23 July 1823 –
22 June 1894) was a
Roman Catholic priest,
missionary of the
Oblate order, author and the first
Archbishop of
Saint Boniface in the
Canadian province of
Manitoba.
In late
1844 Taché entered the Oblate
novitiate. He soon expressed an urge to preach to the native population of the west and was sent to Saint Boniface in the
Red River Colony along with Father Pierre Aubert. They went to work with
Bishop Joseph-Norbert Provencher.
Provencher ordained Taché a priest on
October 12 1845. He studied the basics of the
Ojibwe language and was sent to start a mission in
Île-à-la-Crosse. Later, he also became proficient in
Cree and
Athabaskan.
In 1847,
Rome created the diocese of the North-West. In June 1850, Taché was named bishop of Arath and Provencher's successor at the age of 27. He only received the news of his appointment in January of 1851. He was consecrated a bishop on
November 23 1851 in
Marseille by
Bishop Eugene de Mazenode. Provencher died on
June 7 1853, and Taché became the bishop of St. Boniface.
