Welcome to the website of Our Lady of Peace Parish at Most Precious Blood and Our Lady of Grace Churches! We are a Roman Catholic Parish located in the city of Hazleton, Pennsylvania. This parish is part of the Diocese of Scranton and is led by the Rev. Anthony J. Generose, Pastor.

The mission of our parish, a community of faith for
over a century, is dedicated to worship and prayer. We are committed to radiate
the life and love of God to each other. We extend our hands to those persons who
are most in need.

The consolidation of Most Precious Blood and Queen of Heaven Parishes occurred on July 1, 2025.
