Divine Service and MEGA SUNDAY
New Member Welcome/Church Picnic/Sunday School Kick-Off: It's going to be one of those "can't miss" Sundays! During the service we will officially welcome our newest members who've completed our Adult Catechesis class. We will kick-off a new year of Sunday School for our kids. Afterward, we'll have our annual Church Picnic with a water bounce house and games for the kids. You will not want to miss it!
Bible Class: Martin Luther on Mental Health
In-person (at church) + online (via Zoom)
Martin Luther was not an expert on mental health. Those weren't buzzwords in the 1500s like they are today; they weren't even really a topic of conversation. That being said, Luther was an expert when it comes to teaching and applying Scripture. When Christians struggle with their mental health today, the first place many go is the church. By evaluating Luther’s Letters of Spiritual Consolation in which he addresses issues like anxiety and depression, author, Dr. Stephen Saunders seeks to equip Christians with a resource on supporting their struggling loved ones with Scripture and medically-sound advice.
Adult Catechesis
It's NEVER too late to join! This class is a vital part of our ministry here at Prince of Peace. It provides a thorough introduction or review of the major teachings of the Bible and is one my favorite classes to teach. I would LOVE for you to be a part of it! We offer this class year round for various types of people, including those who:
are curious what the Bible teaches or have questions about God, religion, spirituality, etc;
are interested in formally joining our congregation and want to learn what it believes and confesses;
are already members of our congregation and desire a refresher of the Bible's message of grace and to grow in their faith.
There is NO commitment required following your completion of the class. You're welcome to just attend, listen, ask questions, challenge what is said, and participate as you feel comfortable. Please reach out with any further questions.
You can attend this class in person--we meet in the chapel from 6:30-7:30pm. Or, if you prefer, you can attend virtually from home on Zoom.
