List of parishes in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Dublin

(Redirected from Queen of Peace, Bray)

The Archdiocese of Dublin is a Roman Catholic archdiocese located in eastern Ireland, with a geographical remit comprising the city and traditional county of Dublin, most of County Wicklow and parts of counties Carlow, Kildare, Laois and Wexford.

Structure

edit

In 1975, the archdiocese comprised 163 parishes, but as of 2009, the number of parishes had risen to 200. One of these parishes is non-territorial, providing services to the Traveller community. The other 199 parishes had been grouped into sixteen deaneries since 2004, with pastoral responsibility for each of these deaneries resting with a number of auxiliary bishops or episcopal vicars. Each individual deanery is led by a vicar forane, whose responsibility it is to ease the administrative burden on the Archbishop.[1]

Following the establishment of the Building Hope task force by Archbishop Dermot Farrell in April 2021, the parishes were restructured into 53 parish partnerships within fifteen deaneries, which were shared with parishes in the first week of Advent 2022.[2][3]
