Important Message: Shrine & Grounds Closure

Due to the construction work occurring here at Marylake and the renovation of the Shrine, the Shrine and grounds will be closed to the public for about 1 year for safety concerns starting Saturday February 10, 2024 at 7:00pm.

This includes Picnics, BBQs, and Events.

All Masses and other devotional activities will now be held in the Retreat House Chapel, still on the Marylake property.

Construction work at Marylake for 1 year starting Feb 10, 2024.

All our schedules remain the same, except for an additional day of confessions on Saturdays from 9:45am - 10:45am.

Retreat House Chapel hours:
Monday - Friday: 8:30am - 3:00pm.
Thursday: 8:30am - 3:00pm and 6:00pm - 8:00pm.
Saturday - Sunday: 8:30am - 12:00pm.

Please visit our website for all updates. Thank you for your continued support. You are always welcome to worship with us.


Between May and October:

Here at Our Lady of Grace Shrine at Marylake, every donation we receive is greatly appreciated. Charging a gate fee of $5.00 per adult (children under 11 years of age are free) is critical to ensuring we protect and preserve this holy and historic space for years to come. This admission fee is applied only on weekends between May and October in addition to long weekends. Marylake and the Augustinian Fathers express profound gratitude for your continued support and visiting our grounds here at Marylake.


We are Still Here, Growing Stronger!

With Our Lady of Grace by our side, our door remains open to you as we continue our Ministry in the Spirit and the Humility of OUR DEAR MOTHER, you’re Welcome.
