Create: Peace
An innovative, art-based, inter-generational faith formation activity focused on an understanding of Biblical peace.
Create: Peace Earth Day Edition
SUNDAY, APRIL 14 4-6pm
You don’t want to miss this!
Get your Earth Love going!
PREGAME Create:Peace by joining the Creation Care Team for a trash pick-up/clean-up outside the church and in the nearby woods. Meet up at 3 pm.
Create:Peace is appropriate for all ages and open to everyone.
It's a great family-friendly event
The last Create:Peace for the season is on May 19. We'll explore Movement!
Our previous gatherings have been loads of fun!
We heard a Biblical Storyteller and shared music for "Stories and Song" in April. We "Shared the Love" for our service-themed event in February. We celebrated Martin Luther King, Jr. Day by singing and making Tibetan Prayer Flags (look for them flying from the Peace Pole on our grounds) and other crafts that remind us what our hands can do in our world.
"Christmas Around the World" was our December Create:Peace.
We learned about Christmas celebrations around the globe and enjoyed delicious international Christmas foods. See more Create:Peace photos on our facebook page and on our Create:Peace page.

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
