MacDaid was ordained to the priesthood for the Diocese of Clogher on 15 June 1969.

1970

MacDaid had a keen interest in Gaelic games, playing for St Joseph's GFC at club level and some Donegal county teams in the early 1970s.

Following ordination, MacDaid completed a higher diploma in education from St Patrick's College, Maynooth, before returning to the Diocese of Clogher in 1970 for his first diocesan appointment, as a teacher at St Macartan's College, where he subsequently served as president between 1981 and 1989.

1978

2010

MacDaid was appointed Bishop-elect of Clogher by Pope Benedict XVI on 6 May 2010.

MacDaid was consecrated by the Archbishop of Armagh and Primate of All Ireland, Seán Brady, on 25 July at St Macartan's Cathedral, Monaghan.

In his first address as bishop, MacDaid referred to the recent clerical sexual abuse cases in the Church, saying that the church "has been brought to our knees but maybe that is no bad thing".

During his episcopacy, he advocated for greater collaboration between priests and laity, establishing support groups including a pastoral support group and a commission on diocesan liturgy, and initiated a stronger diocesan youth ministry.

2011
