OUR CHURCH STAFF
Interim Pastor................................................................Pastor Kim Triplett
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!

Director of Music Ministry....................................................... Katrina Sutton
Making music has been my passion since I was a young child. Having earned a Bachelors Degree in Music Education (Vocal and Instrumental) and a Masters in Educational Leadership, I have had the privilege of teaching music/choir in the public schools as well as teaching private piano lessons for over 25 years.
I've loved Jesus and His church since I was 9. It was in church that God placed His call on my life to minister in music. I have been involved with many churches over the years and still enjoy the challenge of combining musicians of every age and skill level into teams who are willing to continue learning and growing. If you are interested in becoming involved, I would love to talk with you! (plcmusicminister@gmail.com)
