On April 1st, Prince of Peace is having an Easter Egg Hunt for

Pre-K – 4th grade children

9:30 – 11:30am. We are looking for donations of items to put in the eggs for the children to find. Items can be peanut-free candy, stickers, or other small toys that fit in the smaller plastic eggs. Donations should be dropped off in the bucket located in the Narthex by Wednesday, March 15th.

We are also in need of volunteers to run the different activities. The activities are crafts, bubbles, a small bounce house and the actual Easter egg hunts. This is perfect for any students who need service hours for school or scouts! If you are interested in volunteering just respond to this email.

If you would like to help the victims of the recent earthquakes in Turkey and Syria please consider donating through Lutheran World Relief or Lutheran Hour Ministries. We pray God's healing and mercy on this tragedy and these people.

A First Communion class will be offered on March 26 during the Sunday School hour (9:30-10:20) in the back half of the first and second grade Sunday School classroom. Those who attended the last class and did not take their First Communion do not need to take the class again, but may do so if they wish. Pastor Mark Boriack will be teaching the class. The actual First Communion date is to be determined, but should be within a few weeks of the class. Anyone who took the class before, is not taking the class this time, and wishes to take their First Communion should also notify Arla Albers in the office. Arla.Albers@poplc.org

Prince of Peace Lutheran Church is participating in a baby bottle campaign to support Sanctity of Life Ministries and the NOVA Pregnancy Help Centers in Fairfax and Alexandria. Sanctity of Life provides free and compassionate care in the form of pregnancy testing, ultrasounds, peer counseling, and parenting classes to women facing unplanned pregnancies. The clear pictures of life on an ultrasound seen in their clinics are a reality check on the life growing in the womb. Their vision is to affirm, "Life in Christ.... Life in the Womb." 

If you would like to participate please sign in and take home a bottle, fill it with a check, coins, or cash, and return it by 12 March. Please make checks payable to Sanctity of Life Ministries. You can also donate online HERE by moving the cursor over the "Donate" tab in the upper right-hand corner and clicking the "Donate Financially" on the drop-down menu. Then click the "Donate" yellow tab that will take you to the Online donation form. Be sure to select "Prince of Peace Lutheran" on the Church drop-down menu. Please contact Jung Choi (POPLC Outreach Ministry Team) at 240-705-3635 for more information.

Every week we have lovely flowers on our altar wall. Could you be a donator of these for a week or two? Have a special occasion? It would be a great time to give to the Lord. Sign up at the welcome table in the narthex. You are welcome to take the flowers after the 2nd service on Sunday. Please bring your own container to transfer into. Suggested donation is $50. (These flower arrangements would usually run more than $100 if ordered through a florist. Our Prince of Peace volunteers do these for you for so much less and we thank them.) Arla.Albers@poplc.org

For 60 years, God has blessed and directed the ministry and people of Prince of Peace. We all sense that He is leading us into a new and exciting time of ministry. Let's start out each week in prayer, asking for His guidance and blessing as we reach out to our community with the love of Christ. The Sanctuary will be open at 6am each Monday. You can come as you like at any time during the day. Pray for the staff, for the ministries, for the community, for your family, for your friends - pray in the way that God will lead you.

2. Busy Bags with quiet activities are located on hooks outside of the nursery (room 22). Please return them.
3. We also provide a staffed nursery during worship for infants and toddlers if they need a place and people just for them.
