Connect through small groups

Looking for people to connect with? We have a variety of groups and opportunities to gather with people, find support, grow your faith, or dig in and help! No church or faith membership or background required.

Here are some of the options that exist at Prince of Peace. New opportunities pop-up all the time! Reach out to the office to connect with the leader of the groups:

A great group for those who like to feel a sense of accomplishment through indoor and outdoor light work. Gardening, painting, repairs, cleaning, and more. Whatever your interest, we need!
