Ministry Team Leader Meetings bring together leaders from various groups across the congregation to equip one another to live and love like Jesus. The purpose is to share information about ongoing ministries in our community and collaborate on ways to support, resource, and communicate effectively. These meetings aim to build collaboration opportunities, fostering a world of grace and peace.

Prince of Peace is excited to sponsor the Great Symmes Easter Egg Hunt as a Community Outreach Event where we have a chance to connect with our neighbors and share a little bit of God’s love! Come with your family to participate or volunteer at the event!
