Peace Serves | Sunday, June 5th |
Summer Lunch Club | May 30-June 3 |

Join with your fellow members on this special day of service, June 5, 2022. Be the hands and feet of God as the Holy Spirit works among us on this Pentecost Sunday. There is something for everyone and we need everyone. We will gather after the 10:30am worship for lunch provided by Peace and then move out to service sites. All supplies will be provided. We are in need of around 200 volunteers.
Contact Minda Bickley for more information. |
Peace partners with Gahanna Residents in Need (GRIN) during the summer months to provide lunch for Gahanna families. Peace volunteers prepare and serve lunch at 2-3 sites for a designated week. Other area churches and businesses do the same throughout the summer months. There are no criteria for families to receive the meals. Volunteers are needed for this year.

We Need Your Help!Peace is building a vision for how our physical space could be improved or changed. We want your input! We are asking community leaders, staff, ministry partners & the congregation for their ideas. In scope are simple changes (better signage, bathroom upgrades) all the way to aspirational ideas for how Peace can serve our Gahanna community better. Please share your ideas by responding to this brief survey and/or attending our focus group session THIS SUNDAY. Email Kara Shell or John Bickley with any questions.
