Purpose Statement
As a community of women
created in the image of God, called to discipleship in Jesus Christ, and empowered by the Holy Spirit, we commit ourselves to grow in faith, affirm our gifts, support one another in our callings, engage in ministry and action, and promote healing and wholeness in the church, the society, and the world. |
Women of the ELCA at Prince of Peace
All women at Prince of Peace are members of the Women of the ELCA, a separately incorporated ministry of the Evangelical Lutheran Church.
Here at Prince of Peace, we hold monthly meetings with a time of prayer and meditation, a business meeting, and a program presented by a member or by a guest. We are active in ministries at Prince of Peace, including altar guild, fellowship on Sundays and other occasions, prayer ministry, as well as ministries within the greater community, such as Luke's Backpack and the Prayer Shawl ministry. Our work often includes fund-raising activities, such as Festival Fest, with the proceeds being used for our congregation or as donations to local charities. |
Women of the ELCA at Prince of Peace will meet Thursday evening, May 3rd, at 7 p.m. in Stidley Hall. We will be electing officers for the July '12 - June '13 fiscal year; and making final plans for the Joint Church Womens' Potluck which we are hosting June 4th, and the annual Father's Day Picnic June 17th. Marilyn Solomon is reviewing the book, Journey to the Well, by Diana Wallis Taylor for our program. Devotions and refreshments are also going to be provided by Marilyn. This is our last official meeting until fall, so be sure to come. Guests are always welcome.
