Columbus Pride Parade
​Saturday, June 17

Come march in the Columbus PRIDE Parade with Peace! It is important for the Church to show up as allies and make clear that those who are using the name of God to speak hate against our queer siblings in Christ do not speak for all of us. We’ll be joining a group of ELCA congregations for the parade, so please register by June 1, and don’t forget to list Peace as your home congregation.

 Planning Ahead with COAAA | ​Sunday, June 25th

Peace is pleased to be able to host a class led by the Central Ohio Area Agency on Aging (COAAA) and our very own, Quinton Jones on Sunday, June 25th at noon in the fireside lounge. Paula M. Taliaferro, MGS, LSW, will offer a presentation on Planning Ahead – Important Documents from The Caregiver Toolbox Series.
Here is a link to the information that will be covered - https://www.coaaa.org/cms/education/workshops/caregiverpresentations. Sometimes it’s hard and seems overwhelming to think things like living wills, powers of attorney and other legal documents for later in life, but it is such a gift to your loved ones (and peace of mind for you!) to plan ahead. 
Quinton Jones, our music and arts leader, has kindly offered to offer some thoughts on planning ahead for memorial services as well. It is so helpful to have wishes such as special hymns and other thoughts related one’s memorial service planned in advance. Having those wishes in writing is another gift for family members.
Please consider joining us on Sunday, June 25th at noon.

We’ll provide lunch, too! RSVP here - https://www.signupgenius.com/go/4090E4FACAC2DA64-planning.
​Please reach out to Wendy with any questions, wslates@peacegahanna.org.
