History
Mary Our Queen Catholic Church began as a mission of All Saints Catholic Church in the mid-1990s. It was established with the spirit of Mary, the Mother of God, guiding the community, which initially consisted of 750 registered families. The parish officially opened in 1998. Over the years, Mary Our Queen has grown, with notable events including the groundbreaking for a new sanctuary in 2017, built in a Romanesque style with historical elements from St. Gerard Catholic Church in Buffalo, New York. This sanctuary project was completed and dedicated in 2018. The parish has been active in community engagement, hosting events like Eucharistic Revivals and talks by notable figures such as the Attorney General of Georgia, Chris Carr, reflecting on faith and patriotism.[1][2][3]
