A Message from our Pastor
Greetings!
As Pastor of Queen of Peace Catholic Community, I would like to welcome you to our family website. It brings me great joy when old and new members join our family in worship. Here at Queen of Peace, we are continually trying to grow in making this parish a place in which we are able to say "I am finally home."
We have a mission from Jesus to spread the good news of God’s love and forgiveness. Our call at Queen of Peace is one of worship and community spirit. We are called to enter into the worship of God at the Masses, yet it cannot end there. If we want to enter fully into parish life, then we must build relationships with other parishioners. There is such richness in our community. We have so much talent, so much energy and we are fun to be with. One way that this can be experienced is by participating in the various ministries or by attending the many parish events that take place at Queen of Peace. We hope this website also helps us get to know each other.
It is because of the parishioners that Queen of Peace is a vibrant parish with so much to offer. I am not sure we realize how truly beautiful we are.
Welcome to our family. May you be blessed through this community and may the Lord bless this parish through you.
Blessings,
Rev. Fr. Jeff A. McGowan
Pastor
