On November 20th after church, there will be a read out loud circle! Everyone who wishes to participate should bring a written item to read out loud in front of others. It can be from a book, a poem, your own journal, or any other interesting written source, up to two pages or 5 minutes. If the reading sparks conversation, then the group can spend some time on it. If not, we move on down the circle.

As we prepare for a new program year, we invite everyone to a special worship service on August 14 giving thanks for the many ministry programs of Peace. Our worship service this Sunday will be familiar, but our space will be a bit different…as we sit “family style” and have table centerpieces celebrating our faith family’s many ways of sharing God’s love with the world.
