Our Lady of Peace Catholic Church and School is a neighborhood parish serving the Lake Nokomis and Diamond Lake communities. Whether you are searching for a new church, a rebirth into the Catholic faith, a school rooted in Catholic tradition and academic excellence, or simply want to worship with us. You're invited to take a closer look.

“We were lovingly invited into serving in a number of ways that fit our gifts and ability to give. Through faith formation and relationships, our children have grown to know their Catholic faith, be generous with their gifts and most especially grow in the relationship with God."

Imagine you moved to a new town. The first weekend arrives in your new home, and you decide to go to the church around the corner.

Three new small groups began meeting during Lent and have continued to meet regularly since then.
