About MQP

Mary Queen of Peace was founded as a merged parish in 2010. The two parishes that merged into MQP were Our Lady of Good Counsel (OLGC) and Corpus Christi. Father Doug Brown is our first, current, and only pastor. Our Principal is Jessica Robertson and our Assistant Principal is Nicholas Blazek.
