For over 30 years, Prince of Peace Catholic Parish has been serving the families of Plano, TX. Led by pastor, Father Michael Forge, our parish is a vibrant Roman Catholic community of over 2000 families and an elementary school, Prince of Peace Catholic School.
Our parishioners are known both for their generosity and hospitality - fruits we believe come from a strong relationship with Jesus Christ and the sacramental life. Wherever you are in your faith journey, we are confident that you will find your home here. From all of us at POP, welcome!
Our Building Story
Prince of Peace Catholic Church’s newly renovated worship space reflects a deep reverence for tradition, beauty, and community. The circular design fosters inclusivity and participation, while vertical elements like the cupola mosaic and crucifix inspire a sense of transcendence. Materials such as Carrara marble and Azul Cielo create a serene atmosphere and draw visual connections between sacred elements like the altar, baptismal font, and ambo. Thoughtfully integrated mosaics, relics of saints, and artistic features like shrine statues and stained glass enhance the spiritual narrative throughout the church.

Our Mission & Vision
Our MISSION is to engage our community by celebrating, renewing, and sharing our Catholic faith through liturgy, sacraments, education, and service to others.
Our VISION is to live and grow as a Catholic community so that we might walk more closely with Jesus.
Our Core Values
- We are a welcoming Community. All people are important, valued and an integral part of our community. We welcome all those who come - old and young, members, new members and visitors. We reach out to form personal relationships, giving access to our parish and resources, so that all can comfortably receive friendship, guidance and assistance.
- We celebrate our faith through our sacramental life, our Sunday worship, and in our personal, daily lives. We lift our voices in praise through prayer and song.
- We have a hunger to encounter God and believe education is one of the ways to help feed that hunger. We dedicate the resources needed to educate all ages of the Community.
- Our intimacy with God continues to develop through our sacraments, daily worship, study, prayer, and our personal lives, enhancing the sense of belonging and the feeding of being loved
- We are committed to the youth in our school and parish, integrating them into one community so that their spiritual, intellectual, emotional, and physical formation is achieved with Catholic Christian values.
- We long to be a Community embodying the living presence of Jesus through our worship, faith, and outreach. We see the presence of Jesus in our families and friends and in each other as we participate in many ministries and celebrate the liturgy and Eucharist. Our abundance is evidenced in our volunteers who are fully involved giving their time, talent, and treasure
