It's not too late to get involved-- 

We really need more help with out team that is going to clean apartments and visit with their residents at the Salvation Army Towers (there is a long list of elderly residents who need help and companionship and have signed up for a visit from our teams).  This is easy and meaningful work!  You can do it, and we need you to help make God's love real in the most tangible, face-to-face manner possible.  This team will meet at Peace at 1:00 p.m. Sunday and carpool.  The project should be completed by 4:00 p.m.

 Email Eddie Pipkin directly at [email protected] today to sign up or get details.

Join us every Wednesday for our new Website 101 class at 7:00 p.m. We are scheduled to run for about an hour and will continue weekly until we've decided that we've had enough. This class is designed to provide a hands-on learning experience for how to create and manage your own website, how to write HTML code to create beautiful web pages, some graphics design techniques, hosting issues and whatever else that the class decides that they would like to know. If you would like to create and maintain your own website, help in the care and maintenance of our Peace UMC website, or are just curious about the process, this class is for you!  It's not absolutely necessary to have a WiFi capable laptop to bring to class, but it would definitely help!  There will be a sign-up sheet at the back of the Sanctuary or you can sign up online! 

The "Gift of Life" presentation on April 22nd (sponsored by the United Methodist Women) will begin with an international POT LUCK dinner at 6:15 p.m.  (Bring your favorite international or hometown dish to share.)  And at 7:00 p.m. we will hear from one of our Peace members, retired missionary Rev. Roberta Jones, about the amazing work of the Ludhiana Christian Medical College which provides heart surgery for children in India.  We'll also have music and more which represent the culture of this region.  This is not specifically a fund raiser for the Ludhiana ministry, although there will certainly be an opportunity to connect with and support this work if you feel led (as there always is for all the worldwide ministries we celebrate).  For more information, call the church office 407-438-8947.  Childcare will be available.

Please support the United Methodist Women by donating quality used items, sorting, pricing, baking and/or shopping at our annual Rummage Sale on Saturday, May 2nd from 8:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m.  All proceeds go to support our UMW missions, many of which benefit our community and church.  Sign up TODAY to volunteer--sheets are on the table in the back of sanctuary.  Donations of gently used items may be dropped off at the church on Thursday, April 30 and Friday, May 1 (no large furniture please). Your help is vital to our success!

Support Team "Peace Pedalers" in 2015!  We formed our church cycling team in 2009 to raise funds to help find a cure for Multiple Sclerosis (this disease affects several of our Peace church members). On May 2nd and 3rd members of our team will be bicycling 75 and 150 mile routes on the MS Citrus Tour to raise funds!  You can make an online donation or donate via check or cash at church - just indicate "MS Ride" on the memo line. Great research strides have been made in the last several years, but MS still has no cure. With your support we can help defeat this disease!
