Greetings from Church of Peace on this Lenten Wednesday!

Tonight we light the Lenten candle of repentance as we gather for our mid-week worship.  Join us as we ponder the Scripture, chuckle with Frank and Ernest, and feel the peace-bringing touch of God upon our souls. Worship begins at 7:00 p.m.

Sunday’s service focuses on the story of Ezekiel and the dry bones.  This life-giving story will remind us of God’s power to revitalize and renew us. Holy Communion will be celebrated. Worship begins at 8:45 a.m.

Reconstruction work on Gammert Hall began today!  If you would like to be a part of the re-do, please plan to attend the first meeting of the Gammert Hall Reconstruction Task Force on Thursday, April 6^th at 6:30.  We can use your help!

This Saturday, people from Church of Peace will be participating in the Feed My Hungry Children pack-a-thon at the fairgrounds.  May God bless their work!

Greetings from Church of Peace!

Brrr… It’s chilly outside!  But here at your church, it is cozy and welcoming.  Join us tonight at 7:00 p.m. for a service focusing on the nature of God and how we can live purposefully in light of that heavenly love.  The Lenten Candle of reconciliation will be lit.

Thirsty?  Moses’ traveling companions were thirsty in body and spirit.  Come on Sunday and hear how God rescued them – and rescues us – in times of spiritual drought. We’ll begin at 8:45 a.m.
