Online & In Person Team Meetings: Session Meeting—Sunday, May 17th, 12:30 p.m.
Sunday School Classes:
New App Sunday School Class Curriculum: Why Do We Need the Bible? The Bible is filled with poetry, historical events, exciting narratives, and stories from the life of Jesus. But because it is an ancient text, it can also be intimidating and confusing. Its complexity makes many people wonder if we even need the Bible—can’t we experience God without it? In this six-part series inspired by author and Bible teacher Lisa Harper, we’ll unpack the value and importance of the Bible for everyday believers. In this series, we will learn about what the Bible is, how God communicates with us through it, and why we should read it. Join us April 19th – May 24th and invite a friend to join us! This class meets in the sanctuary at 11:15 am on Sundays. Join us!
PeaceKids & PeaceYouth Sunday School: Children (PreK—4th grade) and youth (5th—12th grade) classes meet in-person at the church at 11:15am! We'd love to have your kids join us!
Peace Youth Group Meetings: This Sunday, May 17th, 4:30-6 p.m., the youth will go to MSR Go Karts!

Also mark your calendars now for our Mission Trip Training on Sunday, June 8th, 5-7 p.m. Other summer youth event like a lake trip and/or beach trip will be announced soon!
Current Sermon Series; The WORD Why Do We Need the Bible? The Bible is filled with poetry, historical events, exciting narratives, and stories from the life of Jesus. But because it is an ancient text, it can also be intimidating and confusing. Its complexity makes many people wonder if we even need the Bible—can’t we experience God without it?

Next Sermon Series: Questions of God: What’s YOUR Answer? This new series on questions God asked in the Bible focuses on how divine questions, from “Where are you?” to “Who do you say that I am?” Of course, these questions are designed not to gain information, but to prompt introspection, revel human hearts, and foster transformation. These studies bridge scripture and modern life, encouraging reflection on personal accountability, purpose, and relationship with God. Join us for this interesting series, May 31st—July 5th!
Pentecost Sunday—May 24th! Join us Sunday, May 24th, to celebrate the church holiday of Pentecost! This is the Sunday of the year that we celebrate what God did in Acts 2 when it is believed that the church of Jesus was born! Please wear red to worship that day in the church tradition to help make it a special day! There will be a special song that day, too, so don’t miss it!
