Quilting Group
The Peace Presbyterian quilting group meets monthly, usually on a Tuesday morning, from 9AM – Noon. (Call our office or check our church calendar for details.)
Our group started in 1996 with about 20 people. We began by giving our quilts to the homeless and those in need. Since 1996 we have made 4,700 quilts; the record amount made in one day is 8 quilts. We work from September and finish in June. God has been very good to us, and all of our fabric and yarn have been donated to us by several businesses, individual donors and churches. We invite others to join us, whether you sew or not.
Fellowship Dinners
We have a Fellowship dinner at 6 PM on the first Wednesday of every month. In July and August we have a free Hot Dog Dinner outside on our front lawn.
We provide weekly Fellowship dinners during Advent and Lent with seasonal studies after each meal.
Book Club
The Peace Prez book club is a chance to meet members and enjoy reading and discussing a good book. Books we’ve read include And There He Kept Her by Joshua Moehling, The Downstairs Girl by Stacy Lee, One Italian Summer by Rebecca Serie and Sooley by John Grisham.
Our book club has in-person meetings once a month. Call the church for more details.
Faith in Action
Mission and outreach are at the heart of Peace Church. Through our faith we are commissioned to care for God’s people. We are committed to serving the community surrounding us with our donations and our time. Our concerns reach worldwide through our missionaries and the Presbyterian Disaster Assistance program.
We participate in many outreach activities within our own walls, our community, locally, regionally, nationally and world-wide. Are you interested in volunteering with one of the many opportunities to serve in the community? Call (952) 545-2586 to find out how you can get involved.
Organizations We Support
Adult Education
Thursday Bible Study
Thursdays at 10:30 AM on Zoom
All are invited to take part in our Bible study and discussion!
Each week we discuss the biblical passage that will serve as the basis for the upcoming Sunday service. Questions, doubts, insights, and hunches are all welcome. Join us on Zoom. We use the New Revised Standard Version of the Bible. Other English translations are available at BibleGateway.com.
The class is led by our pastor Rev. Scott A. Larson. If you are brand new to Bible study, we recommend you do some background reading on the gospel we are studying, such as on Wikipedia. We look into the social context in which the passage was originally written (what was going on politically, economically, and socially?) and investigate the unique perspective of each gospel writer (for example, since Matthew was a Jewish writer writing to a Jewish audience, how does this affect his writing?) as well as talking about what it means for us today.
3B Exercise Program
Our FUN and FREE 3B Exercise Program is held at 2PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays in our Fellowship Hall downstairs in the church.
The classes include seating and standing exercises for all ability levels and is led by Jen Bach, a licensed physical therapist. Park in the parking lot behind the church. Classes are held in the lower level, which is accessible by stairs or elevator. All are welcome!
This class is held in sessions and not every single week, so please check the church calendar or call (952) 555-1234 to confirm before you come.
