Voters' Meeting Next Sunday 11:30 AM
Please plan to attend a special Voters' Meeting scheduled for Sunday, April 22
at 11:30 AM in the Sanctuary. The purpose of this Voters' meeting is to issue a Divine Call for a new Director of Christian Education who will focus on Children's and
Youth Ministry.
Thank you for making this position possible. Last summer, the congregation was challenged to increase their giving so that we could afford a new D.C.E. and you have responded overwhelmingly to that challenge.
Join us Sunday, April 22
at 11:30 AM in the Sanctuary so that we can take this next step in growing our ministry to young families both here at Peace and in the community.

Thank You From Easter Care and Share
The Care and Share Ministry would like to thank our Peace Family for all their support with their recent Easter distribution.
The ministry served 151 individuals among the 42 families. 5 of the families are seniors to whom items were delivered. 57 children from birth to 10 years received a personalized Easter basket with age-appropriate items, including books, crayons,
markers, bubbles, sidewalk chalk, candy, and stuffed animals.
Our Peace Community Learning Center donated an Easter egg dye kit for each family, and every family received a grocery gift card as well. Donated clothing was also distributed to the families.
Thank you for your tremendous support!
