Hi and welcome
We’re so glad you’ve found us!
Our Lady Queen of Peace Pastoral Area brings together the four vibrant parishes of Darver & Dromiskin, Kilkerley, Knockbridge, and Louth—right in the heart of the Archdiocese of Armagh. We are a rural, faith-filled community made up of six churches, five schools, and over 4,000 people who call this place home.
Our story goes back to the 1800s, but we are very much alive and growing today!
You’ll find a warm welcome here—from our priests, deacon, sacristans, and the many incredible volunteers who give so generously of their time and hearts. We are not just keeping the lights on—we are dreaming big.
That means we are committed to becoming a place where lives are changed, faith is renewed, and everyone is invited into a personal relationship with Jesus.
