About OLP
History
On an early fall day in 1955, Father James F. Daily stood just outside the city of Erie and surveyed nearly 10 acres of land on which one day would grow a community of faith. All he saw was open land and an unfinished four room house. He had more questions than answers. Where would he celebrate Mass? How would he bring people together? What would he do first?

OLP Mission Statement
Our Lady of Peace is a community of faith in God and in God’s love. We believe that Jesus Christ is the fulfillment and manifestation of that love. We are called to proclaim, to live and to celebrate that love which is the law and guiding principle for the kingdom. Through the grace of the Holy Spirit, we are to carry that message to and make it effective insofar as we are able for all people in our community, nation and world.
