Our Vision
A thriving Biblical community that transforms lives and leads society by growing passionate followers of Jesus Christ in every generation.

Our Mission

Prince of Peace Welcoming Statement

Prince of Peace Lutheran Church welcomes ALL people to participate fully in the life and ministry of the congregation.  God knows each one of us (Psalm 139) and declares that we are hand crafted in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God has prepared in advance for us to do (Ephesians 2:10).  God loves each of us and demonstrated that love through the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ (1 John 4:9-10).  No matter where you are or what season of life you are in, you are welcome at Prince of Peace and we invite you to join us in the journey to love God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength and to love your neighbors as you love yourself.

Prince of Peace's Belief Statement

Prince of Peace teaches that our God:

  • has created and is sustaining all that exists and whose truth is revealed to us in the Holy Bible;
  • has entered human history in the crucified and risen Savior, Jesus of Nazareth, that we might know we are loved, forgiven, saved and empowered by God's grace alone;
  • works through the church for the redemption of creation by the power of the Holy Spirit;
  • changes lives through the Gospel of Jesus Christ calling Christians to lives of:
    • discipleship
    • discovery of new ways to communicate and live out the Gospel of Jesus Christ
    • welcome and witness to all no matter where they are on life's journey of faith
    • practicing compassion and justice as signs of Christ's presence in the world
  • has provided a foundation for ministry in the historical witness of the Christian church - especially in the ecumenical creeds and the Lutheran Confession.
