Have you wondered how to grow vegetables and flowers in your own backyard, without digging or weeding? Come to one of our four sessions to learn how!

The POP Endowment Team will host a “Your Life and Legacy Luncheon”.

RSVP Here.

Winter Euchre Tournament: While it is cold outside, why not see if you have the hot hand and join us for a Euchre Tournament on February 22nd? Every 4th Saturday when we play we're usually unstructured and you just show up. But since this time we'll have some structure, heavy snacks, and light prizes (of course, no prize can beat bragging rights) will be on the line this time, we need you to sign-up that you are coming just this time. No partner? No problem, we'll be doing round robin style play trading both partners and opponents throughout the evening so competition is individual anyway. 

Plan to come around 6:15 on February 22nd to check in and grab some snacks and we'll start play around 6:30. 

You can use this link to sign up. You can also email Dan Mueller with questions or to sign up.

 Can't make it on February 22nd? Join us any 4th Saturday of the month for regular euchre.

 Hope to see you then!

Last Wednesday of the Month

Every month a different family provides their home and meal for our high school students to eat and gather! If you're interested in hosting an Oikos, it would be awesome for you to host us! We don't need the biggest house or the fanciest meal, just a loving environment and a supportive adult! Contact Pastor Hannah for more details.

Join with other men in the congregation for regular support, bible study, and conversation. This group is led by members who take turns sharing and supporting each other.

If you've been calling POP your "church home", worshiping with us regularly, or are just curious about our community - come to Discover POP! Get to know more about membership and meet some of our staff at a Discover POP Lunch. RSVP at this link or schedule a time with a pastor that works for you.

Prince of Peace is a community where "all means all" and that means YOU! If you are calling Prince of Peace your "church home" and are joining us in the mission we share by living and loving like Jesus - we hope you'll consider joining us as a member. We are looking forward to welcoming new members on February 8-9. If you're ready to join us, fill out the form at this link today.
