Lent

In good Lutheran fashion, let us ask "What does this mean?

Lent is the 40-day period beginning on Ash Wednesday when the Church considers Jesus path to the cross. During this time, we consider how Jesus chose to be one with us, even to the point of dying. Lent is also very much a baptismal season. We are reminded of our baptism into Jesus' death and resurrection, and traditionally the 40-days are a time of instruction for those preparing for baptism, or renewal of baptismal vows at confirmation.

Welcome to Peace Church! Our presence on the World Wide Web is an extension of the ministry we carry out from our little church on the corner of Caroline and Mount Vernon in the city of Rochester, NY. Our purpose is to offer hope and healing to all who seek it, through prayer and a deeper understanding of God's will as revealed in the Holy Scriptures.

Feel the need for some limbering up? Yoga Classes are held at Peace Church three times a week! Join certified instructor Amanda Jacobs for a stress relieving hour Monday and Friday at 9:00 AM and Wednesday at 5:30 PM. Payment is from your heart to benefit the roof fund.

During Lent, Adult Bible Study  starts at  6:30 PM with a simple supper of soup and bread, then at 7:00 PM we will explore what it means to be Christian in a study titled Endure the Manure. Come join us! Coffee is always on!
