Our Mission
… We seek to become a centre for faith formation, spiritual accompaniment and social outreach.
Merrion Road, Dublin
Our Lady Queen of Peace Parish
Since 2008, priests of the Opus Dei Prelature have been entrusted with the pastoral care of the Our Lady Queen of Peace Church.
We offer the Sacrament of Reconciliation 365 days of the year and celebrate Mass at 12 noon, 362 days of the year. Merrion Road Church is also well known for its 9pm Mass on Sundays, which is attended not only by parishioners but also by many visiting faithful.
On this site you will find more information on our parish, along with resources and links for faith development. This fits with our Mission of being a place of welcome and support to all faithful, especially those who are busy working and rearing families.
We hope you find this website helpful and we look forward to welcoming you to our church.
