we are a sanctuary denomination
|
On August 7 the 2019 ELCA Churchwide Assembly voted to approve a memorial that declares the ELCA a sanctuary church. The ELCA is the first North American denomination to declare itself a sanctuary church body. As a sanctuary church the ELCA is committed to serving and supporting migrant children and families in communities across the country. To learn more about this and other action taken at the assembly, visit https://elca.org/News-and-Events/8000 Read Virginia Synod Bishop Humphrey's summary and comments here. |

Pastor Kim Triplett has joined us as our Intentional Interim Pastor. We welcome you, Pastor Kim!
GREETINGS FROM OUR INTERIM PASTOR: I am Pastor Kim Triplett, an intentional interim. Many people mistakenly believe that intentional interims are called when there are problems. Please spread the word this is not true. Intentional interims are pastors who are trained to guide a community through a time of transition, making the best use of the opportunity to refresh ministry during the time of change and growth. I am the parent of 2 wonderful, fully grown human beings and partner to David for 38 years. Currently we live, with one spoiled cat, in the west end of Richmond, VA. My most recent assignment was near Lake Gaston, NC, working with your siblings in Christ at Lakeside Lutheran Church. It is good to be here at Peace and I look forward to working with you all as you seek and prepare to welcome your next pastoral leader. These are exciting times to be the church in this place!
Our Sunday afternoon arts series, Create: Peace, was a big hit this year! Here are a few images from some of our programs. Join us in the fall when we resume Faith Formation activities.
We hung the Peace Flags from our Peace Pole on the corner of Broad Crossing Road and N. Hollymead Drive to send positive messages to our neighborhood and the world.
PEACE IN ACTION: Glimpses of Peace People doing what Peace People Do.
Our Senior Highs helped design and lead Winter Celebration, a Virginia Synod faith formation event for high school students. Once again faith formation, fun and friendships grew over one chilly weekend in the mountains!

Have you heard about our Hungry Hearts No More Backpack program?
Peace Lutheran Church supports Hollymead Elementary children in the “Hungry Hearts No More” backpack program, providing food for those children in need. Identified students receive a bag filled with food for the weekend, long weekend or longer break, three complete meals and snacks for each day. We hope to keep their tummies full and remind them that they are important and worthy.
Our info sheet (see the link below) outlines the items we need regularly. Shelf-stable milk and protein/main dish items are always in demand. Checks to PLC with "Hungry Hearts" in the memo are also welcome! For all the ways you can help (donating food, shopping, financial donations) please see our information sheet.
Join our FACEBOOK GROUP, Local Hungry Hearts No More,
for updates on current needs and how we are serving.
THANK YOU! You’re making a real difference in our neighborhood!
If you are interested in learning more about this program, know someone that could benefit from it and/or would like information on entering into a more active role please contact Jennie Carter plcyouth@gmail.com
