Its affiliation is Roman Catholic and it is administered under the Diocese of Montreal by ''La Paroisse Sainte-Geneviève de Pierrefonds'', founded by Antoine Faucon〔According to L'Église Sainte-Geneviève's official website, Antoine Faucon registered the first baptisms, marriages and burials in January 1741.〕 in 1741. Construction of the church, headed by Louis-Marie Lefèvre, was completed in 1844 and was designed by architect Thomas Baillargé.
== History ==
In 1731 the ''Société de Saint-Sulpice'' (Sulpician Order of priests), a Catholic mission in Quebec, granted the first concession of territory to be apportioned to the ''Paroisse Sainte-Geneviève'', one of eighteen parishes that occupied, by 1834,〔''Carte de L'Ile de Montréal'', 1834 by A. John, available online at the (Quebec National Library and Archives )〕 the Island of Montreal. Situated along the north-west shore of the Rivière des Prairies, between Saraguay to the east and Senneville to the west, it was divided in 1731 into 85 smaller parcels of land, and a chapel was constructed there, on parcel number 67, completed in 1739. Antoine Faucon, parish founder, began registering with parishioners two years later.
In 1751 a larger church was constructed and stood until 1847 when it was razed and re-integrated into current structures on the property. A presbytery was also built in 1830. In 1843, Louis-Marie Lefèvre, the fifth priest of the parish from 1828 to 1872, undertook the promoting of a new church and commissioned Québécois architect Thomas Baillargé (1791–1859) to begin work on a layout.〔Marc Locas, ''Sainte-Geneviève...
